Loqui Point

This feature was discovered and named "Cap Garcia" by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, under Jean-Baptiste Charcot.

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

Charcot did not use the name "Cap Loqui" on the maps of the 1908–10 expedition, and with his shifting of the name Cape Garcia, this south entrance point to Barilari Bay had remained unnamed.

For the sake of historical continuity, the name Loqui Point was accepted for this feature in the 1950s.
