The well is located below the Nauruan Yaren district. The Moqua Well is not well known, one of a few attractions in Nauru.
The name of the well 'Moqua' (sometimes referred to as 'Makwa') is derived from the former name by which Yaren was known.
Nearby are the Moqua Caves, a series of underground caves below Yaren.
