Calderas can be occupied by lakes, but they do not have to be. Seomve calderas are dry while others are located beneath the sea.

Do calderas form into lakes?

No. Calderas form when a volcano produces an extremely massive eruption and collapses in on itself. But the volcano will often continue to erupt after this. For example, the volcano Krakatoa formed a caldera in 1883, but eruptions since then have formed a new island that is currently very active. There is evidence that the volcano has done such a thing several times.
