Cape Tyl'sky (Russian: Мыс Тыльский, Mys Tyl'sky) is a prominent headland in Khabarovsk Krai, Russian Federation.
Cape Tyl'sky is located on the south side of Uda Gulf, in the western Sea of Okhotsk. It rises to a height of 217 m (712 ft). There is a light atop a 22 m (72 ft) tower on the cape which operates from late July to late October.
American whaleships cruised for bowhead whales off the cape from 1858 to 1874. They called it South Head.
