Eridanus Stream (Bulgarian: поток Еридан, romanized: potok Eridan, IPA: [poˈtɔk ˈɛridɐn]) is the 1.65 km long stream on eastern Byers Peninsula, Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica that drains Feya Tarn, flows northwards along the west side of Tsamblak Hill, crosses Robbery Beaches and empties into Barclay Bay just west of Sparadok Point.[1] The area was visited by early 19th century sealers.[2]

The feature is named after Eridanus River in Greek mythology.[1]
