Spoluka Point (Bulgarian: нос Сполука, ‘Nos Spoluka’ \'nos spo-'lu-ka\) is the ice-covered point on the southwest side of the entrance to Odrin Bay on Nordenskjöld Coast in Graham Land. It was formed as a result of the retreat of the glacier featuring Arrol Icefall in the early 21st century. The feature is named after the settlement of Spoluka in Southern Bulgaria.
