The Solomons Temple Islands (variants: Solomon's Temple Islands; Solomons Temple Island) are an uninhabited Canadian arctic islands group located within the midsection of James Bay in Nunavut, Canada. They are situated north of Charlton Island,[1] and southwest of Paint Hills Islands, Pointe au Huard and Andrew Moar Bay (52°48′N 78°48′W / 52.8°N 78.8°W / 52.8; -78.8),[2]

Solomons Temple Islands are 4 km (2.5 mi) in size.[3]
