Grimley Glacier is a tributary glacier in Antarctica, about 15 nautical miles long and 3 nautical miles wide, lying 3 nautical miles north of the Sunfix Glacier and flowing east-northeast into the Casey Glacier. It was photographed from the air by the United States Antarctic Service in 1940 and by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition in 1947, and was surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey in December 1960, which named it for Peter H. Grimley, a geologist with the survey at Horseshoe Island and Stonington Island in 1960.
