Carval Rock is consists of large limestone boulders that are continually exposed to the sun, wins and surf. During periods of heavy ground seas waves hitting the north side of the cay will spray the whole cliff face, sometimes rising higher than the cay itself. The only vegetation present is two small trees wedged into the eastern cliff face.
Carval Rock is used as a rookery for seabirds who lay their eggs in crevices on the rock face. The cay is also a popular dive spot, fishing destination and venue for burials at sea.
