Neutrino telescopes may detect astrophysical point-like sources of high energy neutrinos as an excess of events above the atmospheric neutrino background. The sensitivity therefore depends on the pointing accuracy of the detector, which is expected to be better than 0.3° for neutrino energies above 10 TeV for the ANTARES detector. methods based on binning or clustering algorithms have been developed, together with a method which does not require any binning. This method is based on a likelihood ratio test and uses the information on the neutrino angular resolution as a function of energy. The expected exclusion limits and discovery potential will be presented.
