Even though the island of Krakatoa was destroyed in the 1883 eruption, the magma chamber deep beneath the seafloor remained intact and could still get magma from the mantle. Lava began flowing from a new vent or vents on the seafloor. The resulting rock piled up and formed a new island; Anak Krakatau. The volcano continues to erupt, and add new rock, so the island is growing.
Krakatoa and Anak Krakatoa are not the same volcano. Krakatoa refers to the volcanic island that existed before its massive eruption in 1883, leading to the collapse of the island. Anak Krakatoa, meaning "Child of Krakatoa," is a new volcanic island that has emerged from the sea in the same location and is actively growing as a result of volcanic activity.
Krakatoa was formerly on the island of Krakatoa, which was destroyed in the 1883 eruption. Currently the volcano erupts from a new island, Anak Krakatau.
Krakatoa, now known by the name of the new island, Anak Krakatau has erupted numerous times since 1883.
No, Krakatoa is a volcanic island in Indonesia and does not have an offspring in the traditional sense. Krakatoa has erupted several times in recorded history, with one of the most famous eruptions occurring in 1883.
Yes. Krakatoa is a volcano prone to violent eruptions and it probably will erupt violently again. While it periodically has small eruptions,we might not see another one on the scale of the 1883 eruption for a few thousand years.

Krakatoa was on the island of Krakatoa. There is now a new island called Anak Krakatau.
Anak Krakatau
Krakatoa was formerly on the island of Krakatoa, which was destroyed in the 1883 eruption. Currently the volcano erupts from a new island, Anak Krakatau.
You can get close to it, but there is no place on Krakatoa, now called Anak Krakatau to land one. The island is accessible by boat and perhaps by helicopter.
Krakatoa, now known by the name of the new island, Anak Krakatau has erupted numerous times since 1883.
Mt.Krakatau got its name because the island it was formed on is called Krakatou and since it is the only mountain there it was named after the island. Anak Krakatou was formed after an eruption of Krakatou and it is so named as anak means child so it is Krakatoa's child.

The Krakatoa volcano eruption that occurred in 1883 in Sumatra, Indonesia. It was so powerful that it even destroyed the volcano. Today, Krakatoa's son, "Anak Krakatau" that was made of Krakatoa's eruption stands on the remains of the 1883 Krakatoa eruption.
Yes. There are trees growing around the edges of the new island of Anak Krakatau.
Yes. Krakatoa is a volcano prone to violent eruptions and it probably will erupt violently again. While it periodically has small eruptions,we might not see another one on the scale of the 1883 eruption for a few thousand years.
Since 1927, the most notable eruptions of Krakatoa occurred from 1927 to 1930 when the volcanic island of Anak Krakatoa emerged from the sea. This activity was characterized by intermittent eruptions, including a significant explosion in August 1930. More recently, Anak Krakatoa experienced a major eruption in December 2018, which resulted in a partial collapse of the volcano and triggered a deadly tsunami that affected nearby coastal areas in Indonesia. Subsequent eruptions have continued intermittently, contributing to the ongoing geological activity of the region.
