An ice-covered cape on the Wilkes Coast, about 20 km west of Cape Cesney. Discovered by AAE (1911-14) from the SYAurora. Named by Sir Douglas Mawson after Dr. Scott Keltie, Secretary of the Royal Geological Society in 1911. Mawson described this feature as being the most northerly part of the Wilkes Coast. It is the most northly part west of Davis Bay, but air photographs taken by USN Operation Highjump (1946-47) and ANARE show that the coast east of the Dibble Iceberg Tongue extends farther north.
