Situated near where the mouth of Port Davey meets the Southern Ocean, the islets have a combined area of {{convert|2.72|ha}} and are part of the Swainson Islands Group. They comprise part of the Southwest National Park and the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Site.[1][2] FaunaThe islets are part of the Port Davey Islands Important Bird Area, so identified by BirdLife International because of its importance for breeding seabirds.[3] Recorded breeding seabird and wader species are the little penguin, short-tailed shearwater (8,700 pairs), fairy prion (5,000 pairs), silver gull, sooty oystercatcher and Caspian tern.[2] See also{{stack|{{portal|Tasmania|Islands}}}}
