Domino Lake (Bulgarian: езеро Доминото, romanized: ezero Dominoto, IPA: ['ɛzɛro 'dɔminoto]) is the 308 m (1,010 ft) long in southeast–northwest direction and 67 m (220 ft) wide lake on Aktinia Beach, Snow Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. It has a surface area of 1.33 ha (3.3 acres) and is separated from the waters of Boyd Strait by a 20 to 42 m (66 to 138 ft) wide strip of land. The area was visited by early 19th century sealers.
The feature is so named because of its shape supposedly resembling a domino mask.
