The Gibbous Rocks are a group of rocks located 7 km (4 nmi) northwest of Cape Belsham on Elephant Island in the South Shetland Islands of Antarctica. They were named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee following their charting by the Joint Services Expedition, 1970–71. The name describes their humped or rounded shapes (gibbous meaning humped).[1]
