For active volcanoes, we have Ngauruhoe, Tongariro, and Ruapehu in the centre of the North Island. Taranaki is dormant, not extinct. Some volcanoes in the Rotorua area have had recent eruptions. White Island and Mayor Island are either active or dormant. The Kermadec volcano/es are definitely active, as is Erebus. Otherwise there are hundreds of dormant volcanoes. The Auckland Volcanic field has produced about 50 vents in the last 250 000 years. The last of these (Rangitoto) about 600 years ago. All the South island volcanoes are extinct.

Is White Island the only valcanic island in New Zealand?
White Island is the only active volcanic island in New Zealand, however there are many dormant or extinct cones along the coastline. Some of the more well known volcanic islands include Mayor Island in the Bay of Plenty, and Rangitoto Island, in the Auckland harbour. Both volcanos are classed as dormant, however, as Rangitoto is in a volcanic field, it is unlikely that it would erupt again, instead a new vent would open nearby.
