The geology of Dayang Bunting Island is about silt stone and the erosion. First and foremost, Pulau Dayang Bunting and most of these islands in the area is composed of silt stone consists of limestone. Besides, as for the simple scrubs air of limestone mostly form a hill by the vertical chalk. It is found in many areas such as Bukit Temiang, Perlis, Gunung Keriang Kedah and Gugusan Gua Tempurung in Ipoh, Batu Cave in Kuala Lumpur. 


Furthermore, a shape like a pregnant woman can be seen from the side of Pulau Dayang Bunting is the result of exogenous processes experienced by rocks especially granite and limestone are found on the island. Next is, in Chuping Formation limestone, there is a brackish water lake near the sea known as Lake of the Pregnant Maiden. Limestone around the lake is a great experience was cracking that may resulted from displacement. Other than that, the lake formed near the fault zone is believed to be called as Dolina, that caused by the collapse of the roof of a cave or underground drainage in the past. Morphology Dolina has filled the water and formed a lake that produces beautiful scenery.

Lastly, the cause of water erosion formed caves and staglatite like suspend and staglatmite like rounded. Cave is the result of acid rain by carbonate erosion. The same situation occurs in Pulau Bidan where it is acidic rain water conditioning scrubs made ​​many fissures grew into a ravine and lake. Therefore, as the rainwater accumulated, it is fresh water compared to the sea water around.
