Jameson Point

Jameson Point () is a point 3 nautical miles (6 km) north of Cape Garry on the west side of Low Island, in the South Shetland Islands. Roughly charted by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1908-10. Photographed from the air by the Falkland Islands and Dependencies Aerial Survey Expedition (FIDASE), 1955–57, and more accurately delineated from these photos by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) in 1959. The name "Jameson Island" was applied to Low Island by James Weddell in 1820-23. Jameson Point has been approved for this point to preserve Weddell's name on Low Island.
