Kril Island (Bulgarian: остров Крил, romanized: ostrov Kril, IPA: [ˈɔstrof ˈkriɫ]) is the mostly ice-covered island 1.2 km long in southwest–northeast direction and 310 m wide in the Wauwermans Islands group of Wilhelm Archipelago in the Antarctic Peninsula region. Its surface area is 24.92 ha.
The feature is so named because of its shape supposedly resembling a specimen of krill ('kril' in Bulgarian), and in association with other descriptive names of islands in the area.
