Only boats are allowed to access the island with a certain permit.
Blocky (dotted with flat blocks of minerals and crystals) lava flows[2] stream from its summit to its flanks. Three historical eruptions have taken place – two within the 18th century, the first from 1700 to 1710, and the latter in 1796. The earliest prehistoric eruption was believed to have taken place between 3050 and 2050 BCE.
