Raksodden (The Rock Point) is a headland at the western coast of Sørkapp Land at Spitsbergen, Svalbard. It has an extension of about 700 meters, and is located between the bays of Bjørnskaubukta and Vestvika.[1] The coastal plain of Breinesflya extends southwards from Raksodden.[2] The Camp Erna was established by a trapper at Raksodden in 1919, when a house was built at the site.[3]
