Skipper Island
Skipper Island is one of the Rønnbeck Islands in the Svalbard archipelago. It lies northeast of Cape Weyprecht on Spitsbergen. The island is a low basalt cliff and its highest point is less than above sea level. The closest neighboring islands are Qvale Island about to the east and Torkildsen Island about to the southwest. The wildlife consists largely of polar bears.
The Rønnbeck Islands are named after Norwegian seal hunters, and this one is named after skippers in general.
