Paumelle Point (65°4′S 64°3′W) is a point marking the south side of the entrance to Libois Bay and the northwest end of the peninsula that forms the west extremity of Booth Island, in the Wilhelm Archipelago, Antarctica. First charted by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, and named by Charcot for R. Paumelle, steward of the ship Francais.
