About

Princess Dagmar Island (Danish: Prinsesse Dagmar Ø) is an uninhabited coastal island of the Wandel Sea in King Frederick VIII Land, Greenland.

The island was named after Princess Dagmar of Denmark.

The Danish military base/weather station Nord is located in the mainland east of the island, on the western side of Crown Prince Christian Land Peninsula.

In Vol. 14 of the Encyclopedia Arctica (unpublished, completed in 1951), Princess Dagmar Island is still not recognized as an island, but mentioned as a peninsula.
