Deliverance Point

Deliverance Point is the northern entrance point of Collins Bay on the Graham Coast of the British Antarctic Territory.

The headland was charted by the French Antarctic Expedition of 1908-10, in 1909 and named Cap de la Délivrance or Pointe de la Délivrance because J.-B. Charcot, R. Godfroy and E. Gourdon were rescued from there by Pourquoi-Pas? after "fighting the ice for six days in the picket boat".

The feature was photographed from the air by the Falkland Islands and Dependencies Aerial Survey Expedition in 1956-57.
