Pualu Kalukalukuang - Map
Pulau Kalukalukuang (5°12'S., 117°40'E.), 59m high and covered with coconut palms, stands on the NW side of the bank about 48 miles NE of Sibbalds Banks. It was reported to be radar conspicuous at 24 miles, and is visible at least 12 miles in clear weather. A coral reef fringes the island. A light is shown from the N extremity of Pulau Kalukalukuang, and a racon transmits from the light. A shoal, with a depth of 12.2m, was reported to lie 9 miles S of the S extremity of Palau Kalukalukung.
There are no fantastic web sites for this island. It is part of an extensive coral reef. I wil tell you that as I researched this site I discovered a collection of Army Map Service 1:250,000 maps of Indonesia (all 13,000+ islands). These maps have been digitized and are part of the University of Texas Map Library. The details of Pulau Kalukalukuang are poor, as you would expect on a 1:250,000. The above map is at a scale of 1:50,000. Looks good, doesn't it?
