The landmass is Crown land from the high-water mark to 30 metres inland. The landlocked parcel of land within this crown land is privately owned.
An artificial tombolo connects the landmass to the mainland in Boomer Bay, which itself lies within Blackman Bay.
The island can be seen in several public photographs.[3][4]
