Quote:
The United States Navy used Molokini for target practice because its shape was regarded as being somewhat similar to a battleship. After WWII, cleanup ensued, as the islet was later declared a Marine Life Conservation District in 1977.

Today, Molokini is a popular tourist destination for scuba diving and snorkelling, as the crescent shape protects divers from waves and the channel’s powerful currents.
