Pontikonisi (Greek: Ποντικονήσι, "Mouse Island") is a Greek islet near the island of Corfu. Its prominent feature is a Byzantine chapel of Pantokrator, dating from the 11th or 12th century.

In popular culture

The island of Pontikonisi might have served as an inspiration for Arnold Böcklin's famous painting Isle of the Dead.
