It is 3 miles long and 1.5 miles (2.4 km) wide. The area is 3 square miles, making it the third largest island of the Channel Islands, and the second largest in the Bailiwick. It is around 10 miles to the west of La Hague in the Cotentin Peninsula, Normandy, in France, 20 miles to the north-east of Guernsey and 60 miles (97 km) from the south coast of England.
