Hoste is one of the southernmost islands in Chile, lying south of Isla Grande de Tierra del Fuego and west of Navarino Island, from which it is separated by the Murray Channel. The island is located in the Commune of Cabo de Hornos, which belongs to the Antártica Chilena Province of the Magallanes y Antártica Chilena Region. The western area of the island forms part of the Alberto de Agostini National Park. The most southern point of the island is the False Cape Horn, on the Hardy Peninsula. The highest point of the island is at 1402 meters.

In Magellania, Jules Verne described an imaginary republic on the island.
