First Images from World’s Newest Island

We’ve got the scoop on the next amazing destination for underwater photography. You might just have to wait 10,000 years for the coral reef to actually form.

In December of last year, the Hunga Tonga volcano erupted spewing ash and flame visible from miles away. What’s left from the explosion (the second in five years) is a brand-spankin’ new island. At just a scant 1,600 feet long, the new island is considered dangerous to visitors, with a sulphurous lake and jagged rocks.

You can view more pictures of the new island in the original BBC article. And email us if you’re interested in booking a spot on our first trip to the Tonga reef in 10,000 years (or so).
