Yes, the island of La Palma is located on the convergent boundary between the African Plate and the Eurasian Plate. This convergence has led to the formation of volcanic activity on the island, including the Cumbre Vieja volcano.
Two active volcanoes in the Atlantic Ocean are Mount Teide in the Canary Islands and Kick 'em Jenny located underwater near Grenada in the Lesser Antilles.
whitby..... 36 postgate drive and at 5.00 at night true story..... coz i live 34 postgate drive
If and when the Cumbre VIeja erupts the chance of a "Mega Tsunami" that could destroy cities is VERY VERY REMOTE!! Why? Because the most sensational theory of all has gotten the most media attention. That being that the entire mountain will collapse into the ocean at once creating a huge wave that will wipe out entre cities. This scenario however is the LEAST LIKELY to happen. Why? Because the most recent studies show that, despite the sensational claims of some, the mountain might crubmle and fall into the ocean piece by piece during a longer period of time, thus not replacing as much water-mass as would an instant collapse. Even though the local islands and perhaps Spain the other local countries would see some tidal waves, there would be no such thing as a MEGA TSUNAMI that is even capable of reaching the east coast of the US and South America.
The island of La Palma, part of Spain's Canary Islands, has experienced significant destruction due to the eruption of the Cumbre Vieja volcano, which began in September 2021. The eruption devastated the capital, Santa Cruz de La Palma, and led to the evacuation of thousands of residents as lava flows destroyed homes and infrastructure. The volcanic activity has profoundly impacted the island's landscape and its communities.

Rincón de la Vieja Volcano National Park was created on 1973-11-16.

Severe weather, a major volcanic explosion or a major landslide. There is a volcano called Cumbre Vieja in the Canary Islands, in the eastern Atlantic. If it erupts it could send a large amount of land crashing into the sea which would create Tsunamis that would head towards other parts of Europe and America.

The Pacific Ring Of Fire (look it up on google) is located in the Pacific ocean. It is due to have very active volcanoes and earthquakes. The pacific ocean means "Peaceful sea" but the Pacific is way more active than the Atlantic! The Atlantic is only due to one volcano that can reach the United States which is Cumbre Vieja (look it up on google) that is located in the Canary Islands northwest of Africa. But remember - tsunamis can happen in the Atlantic too, because of volcanic eruptions and landslides and underwater earthquakes (remember the Haiti earthquake). Though since the pacific ring of fire has more volcanoes and earthquakes, they get many more tsunamis than Atlantic. Hope this helps, and look for "Pacific Ring of fire" and "Cumbre Vieja" on google! :)

The La Palma volcano, known as Cumbre Vieja (old summit) is a stratovolcano and volcanic ridge composed of layers of cooled lava flows and ash. The summit of the volcano consists of a caldera formed by an ancient eruption. During an eruption in 1949 a fracture formed along part of the volcano and a portion of the island slid eastward and downward. There is some concern that, in a future eruption, this slope could fail in a massive landslide, triggering a tsunami that would threaten coasts along the Atlantic Ocean, including the U.S. East Coast.
where is volcano of fernandina located
This volcano is located in Iceland.
