Cape Buller (53°59′S, 37°22′W) is a rugged headland forming the west side of the entrance to the Bay of Isles on the north coast of South Georgia. It was discovered and named in 1775 by a British expedition under James Cook.

The area including the Bay of Isles and Cape Wilson, along with Grytviken is one of two ASTIs on the island.
