Cape Olyutor (Russian: мыс Олюторский) is a cape in the Bering Sea, in Koryak Okrug of Kamchatka Krai, Russia. It points south at the southern end of the Olyutor Peninsula, the southern end of the Olyutor Range.[1] It was named after the Alyutor ethnic group.
The Kereks, a former maritime hunting people of the Russian Bering Sea coast, were living between the cape and the Gulf of Anadyr.
