It is separated from Bernier Island to its north by a 0.5 km gap with a depth of 4 m. Cape St Cricq is the southernmost point, while Cape Boullanger is the northernmost point of the Island. Due to its location south of Bernier, and on the northern side of the opening into Shark Bay where Cape Inscription on Dirk Hartog Island lies to the south, some wrecks and remains have been found.[7] FaunaThe banded hare-wallaby and rufous hare-wallaby are both threatened mammal species that were once found on the mainland but are now both restricted to Dorre and Bernier Island. The rufous hare-wallaby is being reintroduced to mainland Australia. See also{{Portal|Western Australia}}
