The heavily wooded island lies due north of Inchcruin and rises steeply from a rocky coastline to 24m (78 feet) in a central summit.
Along with smaller neighbour, Ceardach, Bucinch was donated to the National Trust for Scotland by Col Charles L Spencer of Warmanbie, Dumfries, in 1943. Although uninhabited for centuries, there are remains of a stone jetty.
