The Arch Islands are a small group of islands located near Port Albemarle on West Falkland in the Falkland Islands. No one lives on these islands, and you can only reach them by boat.
They are called the Arch Islands because the biggest island in the group has a natural arch. This arch is like a huge stone bridge. It's so large that even a good-sized boat can sail right through it!
Islands in the Group
The Arch Islands group includes several smaller islands and rocks:
- Big Arch Island
- Clump Island
- Tussac Island
- Pyramid Rock
- Last Rock
- Albemarle Rock
