The island is situated about 45 kilometers southwest of Land's End, the westernmost point of mainland Britain.

It has a total land area of around 0.3 hectares, making it one of the smallest islands in the Isles of Scilly. The island's coastline is dotted with numerous caves and rock formations, adding to its natural beauty.

Due to its remote location and lack of human habitation, Baker Island is primarily known for its rich biodiversity. It serves as an important breeding ground for various seabird species, including puffins, razorbills, and guillemots. The surrounding waters are also home to a diverse range of marine life, making it a popular spot for diving and snorkeling enthusiasts.
