Odom Inlet (71°30′S 61°20′W / 71.500°S 61.333°W / -71.500; -61.333 (Odom Inlet)) is an ice-filled inlet 9 nautical miles (17 km; 10 mi) long, between Cape Howard and Cape MacDonald along the east coast of Palmer Land, Antarctica.

Odom Inlet of the Weddell Sea is on the east coast of Palmer Land, on the Black Coast of the Antarctic Peninsula. It is north of Hilton Inlet and south of Lehrke Inlet. The Condor Peninsula is to the south, the Rowley Massif to the west and the Snyder Peninsula to the north. It is fed by the Rankin Glacier and Cline Glacier from the west, and by the Haley Glacier, Soto Glacier and Muus Glacier from the northwest. Its mouth is between Cape Howard to the north and Cape MacDonald to the south.

Odom Inlet was discovered by members of the United States Antarctic Service (USAS) who explored this coast from East Base both by land and from the air in 1940, and named for Howard Odom, radio operator at the East Base.
