McIntyre Island is a small Antarctic island just west of Blakeney Point, Clark Peninsula, in the Windmill Islands. It was photographed from the air by USN Operation Highjump in 1946-47 and was included in a 1957 ground survey by C. R. Eklund. It was named by the latter for construction mechanic Albert McIntyre, USN, of the Wilkes Station party, 1957.{{Cite web |date=2021-06-02 |title=Antarctica Detail |url=https://geonames.usgs.gov/apex/f?p=gnispq:5:::NO::P5_ANTAR_ID:9702 |access-date=2024-11-20 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210602224252/https://geonames.usgs.gov/apex/f?p=gnispq:5:::NO::P5_ANTAR_ID:9702 |archive-date=2 June 2021 }}
