Miah Maull Shoal

August 2002

Miah Muall Shoal is the last offshore light station built in the Delaware Bay. It was built in 1909 and is located off of Egg Island Point. The shoal is named after Nehemiah Maull. He was a sailor who drowned there during a shipwreck in the eighteenth century.

The tower is made out of cast iron. It stands 19 feet underwater and 59 feet out of water. There was space for sleeping, eating, and relaxing. The lighthouse keeper on the Miah Maull had to stay alone in one building.
