Narrative

Fue descubierto por la Expedición Antártica Francesa de 1908-1910, al mando del Dr. Charcot, quien le dio el nombre por el apellido del almirante Bellue, Superintendente de los Astilleros de Cherburgo, Francia, donde se construyó la nave "Pourquoi-Pas". En algunas cartas chilenas de 1947, figuró erróneamente este accidente como cabo Evenson, apareciendo como cabo Bellue una punta que está a 9 millas al SE y que en las cartas de EE.UU. de N.A. figura como Phantom Point. Cabo que forma el lado N de la entrada a la bahía Marín Darbel, en la costa occidental de la península Tierra de O'Higgins.
