Darsah is an uninhabited island of the Socotra archipelago, between the main island of Socotra, and Somalia. Like the whole group, it belongs to Yemen, specifically to Hadhramaut Governorate. It measures 16 km² in area, making it the largest uninhabited island of the group. Darsah and neighboring Samhah (17 km to the west) are collectively known as Al Ikhwān (The Brothers). The southeastern end of the island is the southernmost point of land of Yemen.
