Yato Rocks (Bulgarian: скали Ято, romanized: skali Yato, IPA: [skɐˈli ˈjato]) is the group of rocks lying in an aquatory of 25 ha that extends 780 m in west–east direction and 560 m in south–north direction in the Wauwermans Islands group of Wilhelm Archipelago in the Antarctic Peninsula region. Their surface area is 25 ha.
The feature is so named because of its shape supposedly resembling a flock of birds in flight, 'yato' being the Bulgarian for 'bird flock', and in association with other descriptive names of islands in the area.
