About Mokolea

Mokolea is a small collection rock found just south of Moku Mana. The small island is a seabird sanctuary and is almost white from all the bird droppings. The spire can be done with one tank in up to 70 feet of water. The walls of the cave have huge amounts of lobster living in the cracks. Outside the cave one can see large amounts of cauliflower coral and sometimes antler coral. White Tip Reef Sharks also visit the site occasionally as well as parrot fish and unicorn fish.
