Havstein Island is a rocky island, 3nmi long and 2nmi wide, situated 1.5nmi north of Law Promontory and 1nmi east of Broka Island, in Antarctica. It was mapped by Norwegian cartographers from aerial photographs taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936–37, and named Havstein (sea stone), probably because of its rocky nature and its seaward position.
