Lientur Rocks is a group of prominent adjacent rocks lying off the north coast of Robert Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica and extending 660 m in east–west direction and 320 m in north–south direction. The area was visited by early 19th-century sealers operating from nearby Clothier Harbour. The feature was named by the 1949-50 Chilean Antarctic Expedition after the expedition patrol ship Lientur.
