Westward Islet

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Westward Islet is the smallest of the Ducie Island atoll. It appears to be sandy but is composed of coral rubble and dead shells. The islet is in the form of a horseshoe ridge, the highest point of which is about 15 feet (4-5 m) above the average water level.
