Practical
Position from OpenStreetMap (islet). Coast Pilot: Mokolea Rock has a submerged edge that extends 0.15 mile west and depths of 6-8 fathoms around it. Give it a wide berth, especially on the west side, when cutting the corner between Kailua Bay and Mokapu; it lies near the Marine Corps base's 500-yard prohibited area.
