They are connected with concrete 2 kilometers long road, built on the old island route. The primary industries on Rava island are agriculture (mainly olives, but some vineyards also) and fishing.
Mala Rava is situated by the Lokvina cove, which is open to the west – Dugi otok island and Mrtovnjak and Galijica islets. As the peninsula called Zaglavić protects the cove from the winds, it is a good place for anchoring. Also, it has a ship mooring, fixed in the mid 1990´s.
