Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox islands Akula Island (Шаблон:Lang-bg, Шаблон:IPA-bg) is the mostly ice-covered island 915 m long in west–east direction and 274 m wide in the Dannebrog Islands group of Wilhelm Archipelago in the Antarctic Peninsula region. Its surface area is 15.46 ha.[1]

The feature is so named because of its shape supposedly resembling a shark ('akula' in Bulgarian), and in association with other descriptive names of islands in the area.[1]
