Norseman Point (68°12′S 67°0′W) is an easternmost point of Neny Island, lying in Marguerite Bay off the west coast of Graham Land. First surveyed in 1936 by the British Graham Land Expedition (BGLE) under Rymill. Named by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) after the Norseman airplane which landed near the point to relieve the FIDS party on Stonington Island in February 1950.
