Devils Peak ( [ ⚑ ] 60°39′S 45°27′W / 60.65°S 45.45°W / -60.65; -45.45) is a conspicuous rocky peak, 735 m, between Sunshine Glacier and Devils Corrie on the south side of Coronation Island, in the South Orkney Islands. Surveyed in 1948-49 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS), who so named it because of its proximity to Devils Corrie.  This article incorporates public domain material from the United States Geological Survey document "Devils Peak (Antarctica)" (content from the Geographic Names Information System).
