The Oakley Glacier is a glacier in the Mountaineer Range of the East Antarctic Victoria Land . It flows from the east side of Mount Casey to the Borchgrevink coast and flows into the floating glacier tongue of the Icebreaker glacier in Lady Newnes Bay .

The United States Geological Survey mapped it based on its own measurements and aerial photographs of the United States Navy from 1960 to 1964. The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named it in 1969 after Lieutenant Commander Donald C. Oakley, Protestant chaplain of the winter team at McMurdo Station in 1967.
