The Huddle Rocks (from English huddle ' huddled together' ) are a group of island-like reef rocks west of the Antarctic Peninsula . In the Biscoe Islands archipelago , they are 2.5 km northwest of the Symington Islands group .
The Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey mapped them using aerial photographs from Hunting Aerosurveys Ltd. from 1956 to 1957. The UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee named them that way in 1959 because they are close together.
