Description

Bangkei, the middle island of the three and the smallest, is conspicuous from the sea, having a high sandy beach, with a tuft of trees near the center. It is located on the outer detached reef which lies off Eumo Point, the NE point of Telok Kiowa, a deep cove in the S part of Teluk Enggano.

A 3.2m patch lies about 0.5 mile NE of Bangkei and a 3.7m patch lies about 0.2 mile N of Bangkei.
