Boken lies together with Maangrar at the eastern tip of the Arno Main Lagoon in a row of approx. 14 small motus that stretch westward from the eastern end at Kilange as the northern edge of the reef . It forms the end of this chain of islands. From there, the reef edge pulls more south again. Five other motus are almost approaching the southern edge of the reef at Ijoen .
