Best Answer

"Ring of Fire" in the Pacific Ocean.

Mostly on edge of the plates (plate boundaries they're called) since that is where they crash into

other plates and converge and produce volcanoes.

Volcanoes are located throughout most of the world. The most active volcanoes are found on the so-called "ring of fire" in Pacific Ocean. Indonesia has several volcanoes including Krakatoa. Hawaii's Kilauea produces the most lava of all active volcanoes in the world. North America has Mt. St. Helens and Mt. Rainier in Washington, USA. Mexico has several including Parícutin and Nevado de Toluca. Europe has Mt. Etna.

Generally, most volcanoes are located near where tectonic plates are converging or diverging.
