southernmost point
Farthest down geographically
The southernmost point is the location within a defined area that lies farthest south—the extreme southern limit of a country, continent, or other geographic region.
Key West marks the southernmost point of the continental United States.
Such locations often become tourist attractions, marked with signs or monuments.
