The Moala Islands are a subgroup of Fiji's Lau archipelago. Its three islands (Matuku, Moala, and Totoya) are located west of the Lau Islands proper, and were historically linked more closely with Bau Island and Viti Levu than with Lau. They were conquered by the Tongan-Fijian warlord Enele Ma'afu in the mid-nineteenth century, however, and united with the Lau Group. Matuku however was undefeated by Ma'afu.
The main economic activity of the Moala Islands is coconut farming.
