The total land area of all islands in the group is less than 11 km, but the total area of the atolls measures about 370 km.
The group consists of two atolls and one separate island. In addition, there is one separate submerged reef in the area:
Farquhar Atoll (with two larger and about eight smaller islets) Providence Atoll (with 2 islets, Providence Island and Cerf Island) St. Pierre IslandWizard Reef (submerged) There are only two settlements. The main settlement is on Île du Nord (North Island) of Farquhar Atoll, and the other one on Providence Island of Providence Atoll.
