Main town/village is called Ras Hilf (RAZ-HILLF)
Mostly a desert island with scattered palm trees. A sealed road encompasses the entire island, though there can be sand drifts and some water hazards in the monsoon season (Khareef)

Many major banks with ATM's (keep small currency, as most smaller coffee shops and restaurant don't keep stocked cash)
