Moonlight Point (61°27′S 55°56′W / 61.45°S 55.933°W) is the northwest point of Aspland Island in the South Shetland Islands. So named by a JSEEIG party canoeing from O'Brien Island to Aspland Island, January 3, 1977, because the point appeared silhouetted against a full moon. Approved by United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) in 1980.
