The islet has no permanent settlement and is primarily of interest for navigation, shoreline wildlife and as part of the local island landscape. Visits are occasional and generally by private boat or as part of guided coastal trips.
Historically small islets in the Channel Islands have been used for grazing, quarrying or as navigational marks; Crevichon forms part of this broader maritime landscape. There are no urban facilities on the rock.
