Detailed Description
East Molokia - Offshore Islands
These two islands are situated side by side approximately one mile off the southeast coast of Molokai. They are pre-historic cinder cones with dark, crumbly cliffs. Moku Ho'oniki Island was used during WWII for bombing practice. Today the small island is uninhabitable due to unexploded warheads still on the island. It is now home to sea birds and coastal plants. There are several dive sites surrounding these rocks but the area is subject to strong currents.
Directions:
Take Highway 450 east toward Halawa Valley. There are several excellent viewing areas of these islands at Mile Markers 20 and 25.
Useful Information:
Several overlooks afford excellent views of the island from the southern coast of Molokai
These islands can also be seen from the coast of Maui
