Alabak Island (Bulgarian: остров Алабак, romanized: Ostrov alabak, IPA: [ˈɔstrof ɐɫɐˈbak]) is the mostly ice-covered hilly island in Barilari Bay on Graham Coast in Graham Land, Antarctica extending 1.35 km in east-west direction, 670 m wide, and ending in Huitfeldt Point to the east. It is separated from the east coast of Velingrad Peninsula by a 500 m wide passage formed as a result of glacier retreat in the last decade of 20th century.
The island is named after Alabak Ridge in Southern Bulgaria.
