16416800Table Island (Myanmar)The island has a light house, which was built is 1867, and is possibly active (?); focal plane 59 m (194 ft); four white flashes every 25 s. 27 m (92 ft) cast iron tower with lantern and gallery, painted with red and white horizontal bands. Two 1-story brick keeper's houses and other light station buildings. There is no sign that the station is occupied. The Coco Islands are an extension northward of the Andaman Islands, which are administered by India; British colonial authorities transferred them to Burma in 1882. In 1953, India sought to lease the light station in order to better protect shipping in the Bay of Bengal, but Burma rejected this proposal. The islands are uninhabited, but the Burmese Navy maintains a small base on Great Coco Island. Located on Table Island, the northernmost of the islands, about 3 km (2 mi) north of Great Coco Island and 250 km (150 mi) south southwest of the Irrawaddy Delta on the mainland. Accessible only by boat. Site status unknown, but almost certainly closed to casual visitors.
