Dobrodan Glacier (Bulgarian: ледник Добродан, romanized: lednik Dobrodan, IPA: [ˈlɛdniɡ dobroˈdan]) is the 3.4 km long and 1.2 km wide glacier on the east side of Urda Ridge on Clarence Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica situated south of Highton Glacier. It drains the slopes of Mount Irving and Duclos-Guyot Bluff, flows northeastwards and enters the Southern Ocean south of Lebed Point.

The glacier is named after the settlement of Dobrodan in Northern Bulgaria.
