The islands are located in Rae Strait between the Clarence Islands and Beverly Islands. Thomson Point on King William Island lies {{convert|3.5|km|abbr=on}} away, across the Humboldt Channel. Matty Island lies {{convert|3.7|km|abbr=on}} to the east, separated by the Wellington Strait. Boothia Peninsula's Oscar Bay is to the northeast.
