The largest island, also called Socotra, is about 95% of the landmass of the archipelago. It lies some 240 kilometres (150 mi) east of the Horn of Africa and 380 kilometres (240 mi) south of the Arabian Peninsula.

The island measures 132 kilometres (82 mi) in length and 49.7 kilometres (30.9 mi) in width.
