yes krakatoa is the loudest sound ever recorded
at a distance of 160 kilometres 180 decibels
at a distance within 12 kilometres 210 decibels
and in range has 270 decibels
and within crater 300 decibels
the explosion of 200 megatons of TNT has over 363 decibels
+++
I cannot vouch for the numbers but they would be peak over-pressures because the maximum airborne sound pressure level possible is 194dB re 20µPa. Even if you use 1µPa as the reference pressure you would add only another 26db, making it 220dB re1µPa.

What caused the loudest sound ever recorded?
An ex-wife ... lol Sorry, just couldn't resist ... ! _____________ Of the various natural things that can occur on earth without extra-terrestrial involvement, the loudest thing perhaps is the eruption of the caldera of a mega-volcano, or the eruption of a very large cone-producing volcano. Maybe louder still would be a collision with a very large comet or other body. I wouldn't like to be around in either case. Considering non-cataclysmic events, my guess would be: either the world's winds combined, or the world's surface water. If we could collect and concentrate the sound produced by either of these things, the loudness would be unexpected and phenomenal.

The loudest noise or sound is The Bloop because in 1997, U.S. NOAA heard a sound that is never been heard of that is also the loudest sound ever.
