Heaney Glacier is a glacier about 7 kilometers long on South Georgia, lying close northwest of Cook Glacier and flowing northeast and then east toward Saint Andrews Bay on the island's north coast. It was surveyed by the South Georgia Survey in 1951 and 1952 and named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee for John B. Heaney, a surveyor on that expedition.
