Florida Islands or Nggela Islands are a small island group in the Central Province of Solomon Islands. The chain is composed of four larger islands and about 50 smaller islands.[1] The two main islands, Nggela Sule and Nggela Pile to its southeast,[3] are separated by a channel, Mboli Passage. The name Florida Island is sometimes also used to refer to Nggela Sule. The other two larger islands lie northwest of Nggela Sule; Olevugha (also known as Mobokonimbeti) and, further northwest, Vatilau (also known as Buena Vista).
