The Camp II Point is a headland in East Antarctic Victoria Land . As an extension of an icy moraine on the southern flank of the Renegar Glacier, it protrudes from the east into the Koettlitz Glacier .
The New Zealand Geographic Board named the headland so in 1994 because a team from the New Zealand Geographical Society under the direction of David Norman Bryant Skinner (* 1938) set up their second encampment here during a campaign that lasted from 1977 to 1978.
