Moraine Valley (60°43′S 45°37′W / 60.717°S 45.617°W / -60.717; -45.617) is a valley filled with morainic debris, 0.75 nautical miles (1.4 km) long, which drains north into Elephant Flats on the east side of Signy Island, in the South Orkney Islands. In summer a stream, fed by the ice slopes at its south end, runs in this valley. Named by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) following their survey of 1947.
