On Pulau Weh there is a freshwater lake named Lake Aneuk Laot.

Pulau Weh is a volcanic island, an atoll island (coral island) that the process of occurrence of experiencing lifting from the sea surface. The process of occurrence in three stages, evident from the existence of three terraces located at different heights.

Generally Weh Island consists of two types of rock, namely tuff marina and core rock. Tuf marina is found almost along the coast until the height of 40 to 50 meters. The widest tufts are found around the town of Sabang, on a narrow-lined beach. Narrow rock is andesitic volcanic rock.

Based on the region, it appears that the western region of Pulau Weh has the most severe topography. Starting from Sarong Kris as the highest peak in the East, there are three rows of backs that are moving toward the Northwest, so the valleys that are between the backs are narrow.

Topography to the east there is a mountain that direction from North to South that separates East Weh Island with other parts. Mount Leumo Mate is the highest peak. In this section there is a larger layer of tuff marina. Between the West and the East there are streams of two rivers, namely Sungai Pria Laot and Sungai Raya. This area is a slenk of a fleksun (an imperfect benchmark).

The geological condition of this region consists of 70% of volcanic rock (andesite), 27% of sedimentary rock (line stone and sand stone), and 3% of alluvial deposit (recent deposit).
