The two principal islets in the group, Demon and Sprite, are extending {{convert|420|by|400|m|yd|abbr=on}} and {{convert|270|by|150|m|yd|abbr=on}} respectively, with surface area of the former {{convert|9|ha|acre}}.[2] The area was visited by early 19th century sealers. The group includes the small islands of Demon ({{coord|62|40|26|S|61|10|55|W|}}), Sprite ({{coord|62|40|23|S|61|11|31|W|}}), and Imp ({{coord|62|40|20|S|61|12|00|W|}}).[3][4][5] The rocks are named after the village of Vardim and the neighboring Vardim Island which is located on the Danube River in northern Bulgaria. Demon, Sprite and Imp islands are so named to reflect their proximity to Devils Point. LocationVardim Rocks are located at {{coord|62|40|28|S|61|11|00|W|display=inline}} (British mapping in 1968, detailed Spanish mapping in 1992, and Bulgarian mapping in 2005, 2009 and 2010. Maps
