Lonely Planet review for Moku O Lo'e

Moku O Lo'e (Coconut Island), once a royal playground, was named for the coconut trees planted there by Princess Bernice Pauahi Bishop. In the 1930s it was the estate of Christian Holmes, heir to the Fleischmann fortune, who dredged the island, doubling its size to 25 acres. During WWII it was also used as an R&R facility. In the 1960s the island was used in the filming of the popular Gilligan's Island TV series.

Today the Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology of the University of Hawai'i occupies part of the island.
