葛拉漢地（英语：Graham Land）位於南極半島最北端，傑里米角與阿加西角以北，此劃分方式始於1964年英國南極洲地名委員會與南極洲名稱諮詢委員會的協議，南極半島分為半島、葛拉漢地與帕爾默地。


此名稱於1832年由約翰·比斯科在葛拉漢地西部探險時，以英國上議院海軍專員詹姆斯·葛拉漢命名。


英國（英屬南極領地）、阿根廷（阿根廷屬南極地區）與智利（智利南極領地）分別宣稱擁有主權。


葛拉漢地也是最靠近南美洲的南極洲陸地。[1]



其他名稱


阿根廷使用聖馬丁地（西班牙語：Tierra de San Martín）或者崔尼提半島（西班牙語：Tierra de la Trinidad）稱呼南極半島北端；智利則稱之為歐席金地（西班牙語：Tierra de O'Higgins）。
