Bowman Inlet (68°42′S 64°23′W / 68.700°S 64.383°W / -68.700; -64.383 (Bowman Inlet)) is an ice-filled inlet between Kay Nunatak and Platt Point on the Hollick-Kenyon Peninsula, on the east coast of the Antarctic Peninsula.

Bowman Inlet is at the southeast end of the Bowman Coast of Graham Land on the Antarctic Peninsula, opening onto the Weddell Sea to the north. It is ice-filled, and is surrounded by the Larsen Ice Shelf. The Hollick-Kenyon Peninsula and Revelle Inlet are to the east. Casey Glacier and Casey Inlet in Palmer Land are to the south. Mobiloil Inlet is to the west.

The mouth of the inlet is between Platt Point to the east and Kay Nunatak to the west. Glaciers entering the inlet are, clockwise from the southeast, Cronus Glacier, which enters the inlet between Crabeater Point and Calypso Cliffs, Pan Glacier, Aphrodite Glacier, Apollo Glacier, which enters the inlet between Victory Nunatak and Hitchcock Heights. Maitland Glacier joins Earnshaw Glacier to the west of Hitchcock Heights and enters the sea between Yates Spur and Mobiloil Inlet to the west, and Kay Nunatak and Bowman Inlet to the east.

Bowman Inlet was photographed from the air by Lincoln Ellsworth, November 23, 1935, and its western shore was mapped from the photographs by W.L.G. Joerg. It was rephotographed by the United States Antarctic Service (USAS), 1940, the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE), 1947, and was surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS), 1958. It was named by the United States Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) after Lieutenant Bradley J. Bowman, United States Navy Reserve, officer in charge, Palmer Station Construction Unit, Operation Deep Freeze, 1969.

Named by the US-ACAN in 1952 for O. Maitland Miller of the American Geographical Society, who by utilizing Wilkins' and Ellsworth's photographs assisted in constructing the first reconnaissance map of this area.
