- Cape Disappointment (South Georgia)
Cape Disappointment (coord|54|53|S|36|7|W|) is a headland which forms the south extremity of South Georgia. It was first charted and so named in 1775 by a British expedition under James Cook, who upon reaching this position was greatly disappointed in realizing that South Georgia was an island rather than a continent.
