During high tide it is divided from St. Martin's Island by the sea. At low tide, the island can be reached by walking for about 2½ hours from St. Martin's Island.

The most popular travel mode to it is by local motorboat or tourist boat services.

Washed up corals can be found on the island's beaches. It has an area of shrub and palm tree vegetation. No permanent settlement is established on the island.[2]
