Simpson Island lies 2.5 km to the north, with a mangrove-lined tidal creek in between. The low island is 2 km long, 100-300 m wide and faces west across the gulf. Most of the eastern shore has been eroded to expose a low calcarenite bluff, with 100 m long beach WA 1635 wedged in along the base of the bluff towards the southern end of the island. Beach WA 1636 occupies the northern tip of the island. The 150 m long north-facing sandy beach is tied between low calcarenite outcrops, with tidal flats extending 100 m off the beach.
