Namako Hyôga (from Japanese な ま こ 氷河 ' sea ​​cucumber glacier ' ) is a glacier in Queen Maud Land, East Antarctica . In the northern part of the Belgica Mountains it flows in a south-easterly direction.

Japanese scientists took aerial photographs in 1976 and took surveys between 1979 and 1980. They named it descriptively for its shape.
