Devene Point

Devene Point (Bulgarian: нос Девене, ‘Nos Devene’ \'nos 'de-ve-ne) is the narrow rock-tipped point projecting 600 m westwards into Dallmann Bay, and forming the northeast side of the entrance to Buragara Cove on the west coast of Brabant Island in the Palmer Archipelago, Antarctica. It was formed as a result of the retreat of Rush Glacier near the start of the 21st century.
