Nā Mokulua (meaning, in Hawaiian, "the two islands") are two islets off the windward coast of O‘ahu in the Hawaiian Islands. They are also commonly known as "The Moks" (rhymes with "smokes") or the "Twin Islands". The islets are often photographed, and are located about .75 miles off Lanikai, a neighborhood of Kailua, Hawai‘i.
The larger island (on the left when looking from Lanikai) is Moku Nui and the smaller, Moku Iki. They are part of the Hawaii State Seabird Sanctuary and activities on them as well as off-limit areas on them are regulated by law. Specifically, the smaller islet, Moku Iki, is off-limits to visitors, as is the interior of Moku Nui. Also, no pets are allowed. Many birds nest in ground burrows on the islands.
Locals surf the breaks on both sides of Moku Nui and spearfish alongside tiger sharks where they are known to hangout on the ocean side drop off. Kayak tours to the islands are very popular but laws prohibit deliveries to Kailua or Lanikai Beach. In May 2011, a kayak tourist was swept off the rocks and drowned
Afou boro ke gelao m'afta pou vlepo
afou boro ke antecho tin trella mou
Afou gyrizo selida, de zitao merida

Tha pi pos ine to timoni ke ta frena mas gera
Tha pi pos echo agapithi ki ap'ton Theo
Tha pi chalali sto chamo ke pes to akoma mia fora
Na 'me kala, na 'se kala, na s'agapo
Afou ta pame kala me ti sygnomi
ke katatheto ta opla mou sto gelio sou
afou milame idia glossa, mi zitas ki alla tosa

Tha pi pos ine to timoni ke ta frena mas gera
Tha pi pos echo agapithi ki ap'ton Theo
