Les Îles du Prince-de-Monaco are a small group of 16 islands and islets belonging to France, located off Grande Terre, the principal island of the Kerguelen Islands.
They are located in the Audierne bay around from the Bourbonnais point. The two main isles of the group are separated by a narrow strait and on the southern island, l'Île Sud du Prince-de-Monaco, an unnamed hill reaches an elevation of above sea level.
Their name was chosen by Raymond Rallier du Baty in 1908/1909 to honour Albert I, Prince of Monaco.
