The Pascin Point (English; Bulgarian нос Паскин nos Paskin ) is a 250 m long, oval and rocky headland on the northwest coast of Livingston Island in the archipelago of the South Shetland Islands . It protrudes 3 km east-northeast of Rowe Point , 6.4 km southeast of Frederick Rocks , 5.82 km south of Dreyfus Point and north of the Etar snowfield into Zornitsa Cove , a side bay of Barclay Bay .
Bulgarian scientists mapped it in 2005, 2009 and 2017. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2017 after the Bulgarian artist Jules Pascin (1885–1930).
