When was the Krakatoa volcano formed?
Volcanic activity did not stop after the island of Krakatoa collapsed in the cataclysmic eruption of 1883. Lava and ash started spewing from a new underwater vent. The new rock accumulated on the ocean floor until a new island emerged where Krakatoa once stood. The island continues to grow as eruptions add new material.

What is the latitude and longitude of the Krakatoa volcano?
Krakatoa (or Krakatau) is an island group near 6.1°S 105.4°E, in the Sunda Strait NE of Java. *Of the three volcanoes that formed Krakatoa, only the largest one, Rakata, still exists. The others were destroyed in the eruption of August 27, 1883. But a new volcanic cone formed beginning in 1927 in the central lagoon, and last erupted in 2008.
Is krakatau active or dormant?
As scary as it seems, no! Krakatoa actually reformed after an island destroying eruption in 1883. Now Krakatoa is back and has erupted visibly, (not underwater) periodically between around the 1930's to 2007. Thankfully these eruptions were small and any major eruption like that in 1883 will likely occur in hundreds of years.
