Little Bakkungaan Island (Malay: Pulau Bakungan Kecil) is a tiny, flat, tropical island surrounded by the Sulu Sea[1] in the state of Sabah, Malaysia.

[3] It is at the very edge of the international treaty limits separating Malaysia from the Republic of the Philippines.

Indeed, the island itself is referred to in the international border treaty concluded in 1930 between the United States (in respect of its then overseas territory, the Philippine Archipelago) and the United Kingdom (in respect of its then protectorate, the State of North Borneo).

That treaty sets the international frontier as running in a straight line between Little Bakkungaan Island and Great Bakkungaan Island.
