Steward Island (Danish: Steward Ø; also Stewart Ø in some sources)[1] is an uninhabited island in King Christian IX Land, at the eastern end of Greenland. Administratively it is part of the Sermersooq municipality.

The island is mountainous and clearly visible from a distance. According to mariners' reports the island is a good landmark for vessels approaching Greenland from the east.[1]
