Nikopol Point (Nos Nikopol \\'nos ni-'ko-pol\\) is a snow-free point on the south coast of Byers Peninsula, Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica projecting 650 m east-southeastwards into Bransfield Strait and linked by a spit to Vietor Rock to the south. The area was visited by early 19th century sealers who had dwellings at the foothills of nearby Sealer Hill.

The feature is named after the town of Nikopol, Bulgaria.

The Spanish facility Camp Byers (62°39'46"S, 61°06'00"W) situated near Nikopol Point operated in 2001/02 and subsequent seasons.^[1]
