Franklin Island (Danish: Franklin Ø) is one of three islands located in Kennedy Channel of Nares Strait in the high Arctic and is part of Avannaata municipality, Greenland.

The former is also part of Greenland, whilst the latter's ownership is shared between Denmark and Canada.

It is predominantly light brown in colour, very steep-sided, flat topped, and rises to a height of 215 m (705 ft) on the Southeast side.

[1] The island is named after the British explorer John Franklin (1786–1847), by Elisha Kent Kane between 1854 and 1855 during his second Grinnell Expedition, after it was sighted by Hans Hendrik and the American William Morton in June 1854.

Canada and Denmark also left their flags along with whiskey and other alcoholic drinks.
