Domino Lake (Bulgarian: езеро Доминото, romanizedezero Dominoto, IPA: ['ɛzɛro 'dɔminoto]) is the 308 m long in southeast–northwest direction and 67 m wide lake on Aktinia Beach, Snow Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. It has a surface area of 1.33 ha and is separated from the waters of Boyd Strait by a 20 to 42 m wide strip of land. The area was visited by early 19th century sealers.[1]

The feature is so named because of its shape supposedly resembling a domino mask.
