Fue descubierto por la Expedición Alemana de 1873-1874, al mando del capitán Eduard Dallmann, auspiciada por Albert Rosenthal y por la Sociedad Alemana para la Navegación Polar, aunque su relación con la isla Anvers no se conocía en ese tiempo. Después lo cartografió la Expedición Antártica Francesa de 1903-1905, al mando de Charcot, quien le dio el nombre por el del Príncipe Albert de Mónaco, patrocinador de la expedición. El nombre actual es una traducción del original al castellano. Cabo que constituye el extremo SW de la isla Anvers, archipiélago de Palmer. |
