Baby Islands are home to sea otters and whiskered auklets in an impressive archipelago that is a habitat for bald eagles. They are a group of six low islands in Akutan Pass and north of the east end of Unalga Island. The islands are all tundra covered. On the west island is a large rookery and the ground is very pitted over almost the entire top. The southeast island is used as a fox ranch. When seen apart from Unalga Island, the Baby Islands are prominent although they tend to blend together to appear as one island. Strong currents sweep among the Baby Islands. The south end of the passage between the two southeast islands is blocked by a reef bare at low water, forming a small protected bay, but strong currents make it a rather uncomfortable anchorage for small boats. Baby Pass, about 0.8 mile wide, separates Unalga Island from the Baby Islands.
