Ronalds Point is the rocky point on the north coast of Elephant Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica situated just east of the terminus of Snellius Glacier. The area was visited by early 19th century sealers. The feature is named after Francis Ronalds (1788-1873), a British scientist and inventor who modified the octant to create the surveying sector; in association with other names in the area deriving from the early development or use of geodetic instruments and methods.

Britische Wissenschaftler kartierten die Landspitze zuletzt 2009. Die bulgarische Kommission für Antarktische Geographische Namen benannte sie im April 2021 nach dem britischen Wissenschaftler und Erfinder (1788–1873), der den Oktant für das Vermessungswesen weiterentwickelt hatte.
