Yagong Island (Chinese: 鸭公岛; pinyin: Yāgōng-dǎo) (Vietnamese: Đảo Ba Ba) is an island in the Crescent Group (Yongle Qundao 永乐环礁) of the Paracel Islands, in the South China Sea. It is also known as "He Duck", and is located a few hundred metres SW of Observation Bank (Silver Islet, Yin Yu (银屿), Bãi Xà Cừ) in the NE of the Crescent Group.
Like all the other Paracel islands, it is controlled by China (PRC) and claimed by Taiwan (ROC) and Vietnam. It is administered as the Yagong Community, a village-level division, part of Yongxing Dao Neighborhood Committee township-level division in the county-level division of the Xisha District of the Sansha prefecture-level city, in Hainan province.
It has an area of just under 1 hectare (9,800 square metres). Trees have been planted on the island, as part of a Sansha-wide greening project.[1]
