Punkudutivu is about 30 km from Jaffna via Kayts. Punkudutivu is the last island in the west accessible by road from Jaffna and is mainly known as the last stop before reaching Nainativu or Delft by boat. The pier is located in Kurikaduwan, in the west of the island. Named Middleburgh during the Dutch occupation, the island has several villages and the famous Hindu temple Kannaki Ambal. The majority of the population is made up of Tamils of Hindu persuasion, and some Catholics. The island has experienced serious abuses by members of the Sri Lankan Navy during the civil war.
