Nila Volcano — Indonesia

The 5 x 6 km Nila Island in the Banda Sea is comprised of a low-rimmed caldera breached at sea level on the south and east, with a youthful forested cone. Phreatic eruptions from the dominantly andesitic volcano, also known as Laworkawra, have occurred from summit vents and flank fissures. A 1932 eruption from a fissure that extended from the summit to the SE coast produced heavy ashfall that forced abandonment of Rumadai village.
