The Marmais Point (English, Bulgarian нос Мармаис nos Marmais ) is an ice-covered headland on the south coast of Trinity Peninsula in the north of Graham Lands on the Antarctic Peninsula . It protrudes 6.3 km southwest of Kiten Point , 12 km northwest of Kotick Point , 21.6 km north-northeast of Gredaro Point and 6.65 km southeast of Mount Bradley into the Prince Gustav Canal .

German and British scientists mapped it together in 1996. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2016 after the Bulgarian prince and military leader Marmais († 924).
