沿着島的西岸,有一個由珊瑚礁圍繞形成的沙質半開放潟湖。常住人口約350人,主要聚居於島的北部;另外通常還有約400人的觀光客。島的南方有偏佈森林的山,全島最高處為海拔875米, 2,871英尺的高爾山(Mt. Gower)也在這裏[6]。豪勳爵群島由28個島嶼、小島及岩礁組成[6]。除卻豪勳爵島本島,最為人所注意的島嶼是無人火山島柏爾的金字塔,距離豪勳爵島東南方23 km(14 mi;12 nmi)。群島以北有一系列七座無人居住的島鏈,叫作Admiralty Group[7]。
豪勳爵島於1788年2月17日由亨利·利居柏德·柏爾(Henry Lidgbird Ball)所領導的英國皇家海軍發現,以對法國作戰有功的理查德·豪(Richard Howe,「Howe」姓也有譯為「何奧」者)勳爵命名。
豪勳爵島是由海底2000多公尺深的火山運動與噴發而形成。聯合國教育、科學及文化組織(UNESCO)於1982年把豪勳爵島與周圍小島列為具有自然方面重要性的世界自然遺產[8]。
