Ranked as National Geographic among Top 10 Islands , this small, 12-square-kilometer island with a tropical rainforest is the tip of a sleepy volcano (at least nowadays) that rises to 870m (nearly 3000ft) above sea level.

With no beaches, its steep topography is a well-defined characterization of a volcano summit.
A single road (aptly-named 'The Road') which was built over a long period of time from 1938 to 1958, leads to picturesque villages known as 'The Bottom' or 'Windwardside'.
