From such large vessels you can get a reasonable view of the southwestern end (narrow aspect) of the island and its steep cliffs.

To approach it and land requires a private boat, and safe anchorage is advisable only in calm weather at one of its two key anchorages: One House Bay on the east coast and Cliff Bay on the south coast.

The former is the preferred option as it shelters boats from the prevailing northwest winds and has better access to the island via a pebbled beach and small flat hinterland.

The chapel can be found by following a short path from the beach at One House Bay, and past the island's well and supply of brackish water.

To locate the simple two-story house that gives the bay its name, follow another short path at the north end of the beach and through the noisy cicada-filled woods towards the foot of the main hill on the island.
