The tallest volcanoes on earth existed millions of years ago, and may have towered many kilometers above their base level.
Existing volcanoes have reached heights of over 4000 meters (13000 feet) above sea level. The tallest volcano, Mauna Kea, has its base on the ocean floor and is over 10000 meters (33000 feet) in total height.
(Olympus Mons, on Mars, is more than 22 km tall, or over 14 miles.)
Underwater volcanoes are called submarine volcanoes. They form in a similar way as their continental counterparts, that is close to plate boundaries.
Underwater volcanoes and mountains can form at both convergent and divergent boundaries.
Underwater volcanoes introduce substances into the water that bacteria can feed on. These bacteria are the source of nutrition for miniature ecosystems that emerge around such volcanoes.

Submerged underwater volcanoes are referred to as submarine volcanoes or seamounts. These volcanic structures can be found on the ocean floor and may rise from the seabed to create underwater mountains.
Yes and a great many of the earth's volcanoes are underwater.
