Description

Vincent in the West Indies. It has a lake in its crater.

Born in 1718, the volcano has had seven eruptions including violent eruptions in 1718, 1812, 1902, 1995, and 1997. A heavy ash fall accompanying the 1812 eruption killed 75 people. In 1902, the northern third of the island was devastated within several minutes by a glowing avalanche.

The glowing ash cloud descended all sides of the volcano killing 1,600. Evacuation of 17,000 people in 1979 prevented a potential repeat of the tragedy of 1902. Large scale evacuations were ordered in 1997.
