Duclaux Point (64°4′S 62°15′W) is a point extending into Bouquet Bay from the east side of Pasteur Peninsula, 3 nautical miles (6 km) southeast of Cape Cockburn on Brabant Island in the Palmer Archipelago. It was first charted by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, and named by Jean-Baptiste Charcot for Pierre E.
