Narrative

Probablemente fue denominada por la Expedición Antártica Francesa de 1908-1910, al mando del Dr. Jean B. Charcot. Este nombre fue puesto en una carta del año 1935 basadas en las exploraciones que de estas islas realizó el personal de la "Discovery II". Punta que forma la extremidad SE de la isla Nelson, en las islas Shetland del Sur, es baja y no presenta su costa muy acantilada como el resto de la isla, es muy sucia, despide numerosos islotes y rocas. Sobre ella se alzan dos morros desprovistos de nieve.
