Data

Île Diable is a tiny, green islet amongst the Salomon Islands of the British Indian Ocean Territory. It lies off the north point of Boddam Island.

Like most of the smaller Chagos Islands, it is named in French, having been first charted by the French before the archipelago passed to British rule during the Napoleonic Wars.
