The fifteenth largest and the smallest Spratly island. Located 8 miles (13 km) northeast of Kota Island (Lankiam Cay). A few years ago this island has a sand bar area of more than 5 hectares but strong waves brought by a strong typhoon washed out the sandy surface (beach) of the island leaving behind today the calcarenite foundation that can be seen at low tide. Several soldiers stationed.
