On maps, it appears as little more than a dot. On site, it reveals itself as a typical detail of the island landscape surrounding the main island.

The very small, flat coral island lies close to the coast and belongs to the Inner Islands. It is completely surrounded by reefs. There is no infrastructure on land and no reason to stay. Its significance arises from its location and function. In practice, it serves as a reference point in coastal areas, for example for navigation, routes, or spatial orientation.

Such islands reveal just how intricate the island mosaic around Mahé is. Numerous small points of land structure the landscape, even though they themselves are rarely visited.
