Elisabethinsel (Elisabeth Island) is the mostly ice-covered island 1.6 km long in southwest–northeast direction and 880 m wide in the Dannebrog Islands group of Wilhelm Archipelago in the Antarctic Peninsula region. Its surface area is 95.12 ha.[1]
The feature was named by German scientists as the result of an Antarctic trip in the southern summer of 1893/94.[2]

Elisabethinsel is located 3.01 km west of the westernmost extremity of Booth Island and 3 km northwest of Pléneau Island. Separated from the adjacent Stego Island on the northwest by a passage narrowing to 52 m at points. British mapping in 2001.
