Cape Garcia

Cape Garcia (65°44′S 64°40′W / 65.733°S 64.667°W / -65.733; -64.667) is a cape at the north side of the entrance to Barilari Bay, forming the north extremity of Felipe Solo (Obligado) Peninsula on the west coast of Graham Land, Antarctica.

The cape was discovered and named "Cap Loqui" by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, under Jean-Baptiste Charcot.

The maps of Charcot's French Antarctic Expedition, 1908–10, showed "Cap Garcia" as the north cape of Barilari Bay and the name has since become established for this feature.
