Retamales Point ({{lang-bg|нос Ретамалес}}, ‘Nos Retamales’ \\'nos re-ta-'ma-les\\) is the rock-tipped northeast entrance point of Hall Cove and west entrance point of Argonavt Cove, projecting 700 m northwards from the northwest coast of Nelson Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. The area was visited by early 19th century sealers.

The point is named after José Retamales Espinoza, Director of the Chilean Antarctic Institute, for his support for the Bulgarian Antarctic programme.
