Landing Cove (60°44′S 45°41′W / 60.733°S 45.683°W / -60.733; -45.683) is a cove north of Conroy Point on the northwest side of Moe Island in the South Orkney Islands, Antarctica. It was so named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee because the cove provides the only possible landing place for small boats on the island.
