Snake Island (38°05'S., 144°28'E.) lies midway along the coast between Point Wilson and Point Lillias, about 3 miles W. The island, connected to the mainland by salt flats, separates two shallow bays. Snipe Hill, a grassy hummock, 18.3m high, lies about 0.2 mile inland at the head of the E bay. A rocky spit, with a depth of 1.5m over its outer end, and an exposed wreck extends about 0.5 mile S of the S end of Snake Island.
