The Florida Islands are a small island group in Solomon Islands, a nation in the Pacific Ocean. The Florida Islands group is north of the more famous island of Guadalcanal, the scene of one of the Battle of Guadalcanal during World War II. Among the more important islands of the Florida grouping are Nggela Sule, Tulagi, Gavutu and Tanambog. The name Florida Island itself is also used to refer to Nggela Sule, the largest of the group.
