St Paul's Island is sometimes split into two islands by a shallow isthmus, and it is therefore sometimes referred to in the plural as St Paul's Islands. St Paul's Island has been uninhabited since World War II.

 

In 1844 a prominent statue of Saint Paul was erected on the island - Which can be seen to the right of the island.
