The Harvey Shoals are three shoals off the Fallières coast of Graham Land on the Antarctic Peninsula . They lie at a depth of three fathoms (about 5.5 m) between Millerand Island and Northstar Island in Marguerite Bay .

The mapping was carried out in 1966 by the hydrographic surveying unit of the British research vessel RRS John Biscoe . It is named after Petty Officer Brian Edward Harvey (1937-2016), who carried out all depth plumbing .
