Bell Island (Russian: Остров Белл) is a small island in the south-west of the Franz Josef Land archipelago in Arkhangelsk Oblast, Russia.

The island was named by English explorer Benjamin Leigh Smith for its bell-shaped mountain, rising steeply from the island's southern coast with the Barents Sea.

Grant took a photograph aboard the Eira of Arthur Conan Doyle along with Smith, the Gray brothers, and ship’s surgeon William Neale.

The island was later visited by the Svyataya Anna of the ill-fated Brusilov Expedition in 1914.
