It owes its name to the nearby Habitation Frégate.
The islet culminates at an altitude of 20 metres. It has a discontinuous vegetation cover made of grassy herbaceous plants, pear trees, mangroves. A rare tree is found there, the great Cosmaya with its scientific name Cratera Tapia.
As for fauna, we meet sheep, anolis, wood lice and crickets.
For birds: the black-tailed dove that lives on this islet because of the seeds of the "boi zotolan" on which it feeds.
