Onekotan Island, Russia

An island within an island was created after a big eruption around 9,000 years ago caused the peak of Onekotan’s volcano to collapse, forming a caldera that subsequently filled with water. The island inside the caldera is known as Krenitzyn Peak, which is the highest point on the island at around 4,300 feet.
