Foyn Point (65°15′S 61°38′W / 65.250°S 61.633°W) is a point surmounted by a peak 525 metres (1,720 ft) high, forming the southeast extremity of Blagoevgrad Peninsula and marking the north side of the entrance to Exasperation Inlet, on Oscar II Coast on the east side of Graham Land, Antarctica. Sir Hubert Wilkins on a flight of December 20, 1928 photographed what appeared to be an island off the east coast, later charting it in 66°30′S 62°30′W / 66.500°S 62.500°W (present Slav Point). Subsequent comparison of Wilkins' photographs of this feature with those taken by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey, who charted the coast in 1947, indicate that this point, although considerably north of the position reported by Wilkins, is the feature named by him as "Foyn Island". The name Foyn P

  • Foyn Point är en udde i Antarktis. Den ligger i Västantarktis. Argentina, Chile och Storbritannien gör anspråk på området. Terrängen inåt land är platt åt sydost, men åt nordväst är den kuperad. Den högsta punkten i närheten är 821 meter över havet, 15,4 kilometer nordväst om Foyn Point. Trakten är obefolkad. Det finns inga samhällen i närheten. (sv)

  • Der Foyn Point ist eine von einem 525 m hohen Berggipfel überragte Landspitze an der Oskar-II.-Küste des Grahamlands auf der Antarktischen Halbinsel. Sie markiert die Nordseite der Einfahrt zum Exasperation Inlet. Der australische Polarforscher Hubert Wilkins identifizierte bei seinem Überflug am 20. Dezember 1928 eine Insel und bestimmte ihre Position bei 66° 33’ Süd, 62° 30’ West. Nachfolgende Vergleiche zwischen Wilkins’ Luftaufnahmen und denjenigen des Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey aus dem Jahr 1947 zeigten, dass es sich bei Wilkins’ Entdeckung um eine Landspitze handeln musste, dessen südöstlicher Ausläufer das hier beschriebene Kap ist. Namensgeber ist der norwegische Walfang- und Schiffsmagnat Svend Foyn (1809–1894). (de)
