Knox Atoll, Coral atoll in Ratak Chain, Marshall Islands.
Knox Atoll consists of 18 islands with a total land area of 0.98 square kilometers, surrounding a lagoon of 3.42 square kilometers.
The German Empire incorporated Knox Atoll in 1885, followed by Japanese control after World War I and United States administration until 1986.
The indigenous population of Knox Atoll traditionally relied on marine resources and developed specific navigation methods for the Pacific waters.
The atoll reaches an elevation of 3 meters above sea level and remains accessible through connections from Arno Airport and Ine Island Airport.
A devastating typhoon in 1905 stripped the island of Nadikdik to bare coral, with only two survivors who drifted for 24 hours.
Elevation above the sea: 3 m
