Cleft Point

Cleft Point is a headland on east side of Norway Bight, a bay of Coronation Island amongst the South Orkney Islands in the British Antarctic Territory.

The point was charted by Discovery Investigations in 1933. Following survey by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey from Signy in 1950 it was so named because the point is the western extremity of a small island separated from the main island by a very narrow channel.
