Jameson Point

Jameson Point is a small headland on the north side of the entrance to Malina Cove, situated 6.3 km (3.9 mi) north of Cape Garry on the west side of Low Island, in the South Shetland Islands of Antarctica.

The point was photographed from the air by the Falkland Islands and Dependencies Aerial Survey Expedition, 1955–57, and more accurately delineated from these photos by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey in 1959.

[1] The headland has been identified as an Important Bird Area (IBA) by BirdLife International because it supports a large breeding colony of chinstrap penguins, with about 25,000 pairs recorded there in 1993.

The adjacent marine area is part of ASPA 152 – Western Bransfield Strait.
