The Dellbridge Islands are a group of four islands lying in the Antarctic,[1] just south of Cape Evans and Ross Island.

They are individually called Inaccessible Island, Tent Island, Big Razorback Island, and Little Razorback Island. They are named after James H Dellbridge who was Second Engineer on the Discovery Expedition 1900 - 1904, led by Robert Falcon Scott.
