Location of Liège Island in the Antarctic Peninsula region.

Mishev Bluff (Bulgarian: Мишев рид, romanizedMishev rid, IPA: [ˈmiʃɛv ˈrid]) is the mostly ice-covered bluff rising to 600 m in Brugmann Mountains on Liège Island in the Palmer Archipelago, Antarctica. It has precipitous and partly ice-free southwest slopes, and surmounts Zbelsurd Glacier to the north and Pleystor Glacier to the south.

The feature is named after Emil Mishev, geologist at St. Kliment Ohridski base in 2004/05 and subsequent seasons, and base commander during part of the 2006/07 season.
