Hoved Island is part of the Qikiqtaaluk Region of the Canadian territory of Nunavut. The island is located between the Svendsen and Bjorne peninsulas, and within the Baumann Fiord of Ellesmere Island, considered part of the Queen Elizabeth Islands, in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago.[1] It comprises an area of 158 km2 (61 sq mi).[2]

Hoved Island was first charted and named (hoved, Norwegian for "main") by the second Norwegian expedition of the Fram (1898—1902) under Capt. Otto Sverdrup.[3]
