East Cape is on the north-east coast of Coronation Island amongst the South Orkney Islands in the British Antarctic Territory, south-east of Cape Bennett.

The cape was sighted by Powell and Palmer in December 1821; and was roughly charted by Sørlle in 1912-13. It was recharted and named descriptively by Discovery Investigations in 1933.
