Raven Peninsula (, ) is the mostly ice-covered peninsula projecting 5.5 km southeastwards from Nordenskjöld Coast in Graham Land, and 5.2 km wide. It is bounded by Odrin Bay to the north and Desislava Cove to the southwest, and ends in Cape Worsley to the southeast. The peninsula was formed as a result of the retreat of Aleksiev Glacier and the glacier featuring Arrol Icefall in the early 21st century. It is named after the town of Raven in medieval Southwestern Bulgaria.
