Flesa ( Norwegian for Low Island ) is a single nunatak in Queen Maud Land, East Antarctica . It rises 11 km east of the northeastern foothills of the Borg massif .
Norwegian cartographers, who also named it descriptively, mapped it on the basis of aerial photographs and measurements of the Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition (1949–1952) as well as aerial photographs that were taken between 1958 and 1959 during the Third Norwegian Antarctic Expedition (1956–1960).
