Mida Island (Bulgarian: остров Мида, romanized: ostrov Mida, IPA: [ˈostrof ˈmidɐ]) is the rocky island 204 m long in west–east direction and 93 m wide, part of Vetrilo Rocks in the Wauwermans Islands group of Wilhelm Archipelago in the Antarctic Peninsula region. Their surface area is 1.15 ha.[1]
The feature is so named because of its shape supposedly resembling a mussel ('mida' in Bulgarian), and in association with other descriptive names of islands in the area.[1]
