The Navigator Nunatak is a large nunatak in the middle of the formation area of the Aviator Glacier on the edge of the polar plateau in East Antarctica Victoria Land .
The northern group of the New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition (1962–1963) named it because it is a good landmark for navigation. Other objects in the area such as the Aviator Glacier, the Pilot Glacier and the Co-Pilot Glacier have a similar naming background.
