Bucentaur Rock is the outermost of three rocks off Busen Point, on the coast of South Georgia.

The rock was charted by Discovery Investigations in 1927 and called Low Rock; following the South Georgia Survey in 1951-52, named Bucentaur Rock, after the floating factory Bucentaur which was anchored at Husvik after 1907 and from which the name 'Busen' is derived.
