Lease Islands

Lease Islands in the center of the Maluku Islands

The Lease Islands, formerly called the Uliassers, are a group of three inhabited islands (and smaller uninhabited islets), lying immediately to the south of Seram and east of Ambon Island in the province of Maluku, in Indonesia. The three inhabited islands, from west to east, are Haruku, Saparua, Nusa Laut and tiny uninhabited Molana; these islands constitute administrative districts (kecamatan) within Central Maluku Regency.
