The '''Shackleton Inlet''' is a reentrant, about 16 km (10 mi) wide, between [[Cape Wilson (Ross Dependency)|Cape Wilson]] and [[Cape Lyttelton]]. It is occupied by the terminus of the [[Nimrod Glacier]] descending at a low gradient from the bordering highlands to the [[Ross Ice Shelf]].

Discovered by Capt. [[Robert Falcon Scott]], in December 1902, while on his attempted trip to the [[South Pole]]. He was accompanied on this trip by Dr. Edward A. Wilson and Lt. (later Sir) [[Ernest Shackleton]], for whom this [[inlet]] was named.
