Volcanic islands
Geographically, theses are the most isolated island in the word-4,000 kilometers from the nearest landmass. Originally formed by volcanic eruption, they are still in the process of formation today- the Kilauea volcano on the main island has been in continuous eruption for the past 23 years, producing a slow river of lava that flows down to the sea and cools into rock. The magma has created one of the planet's most dramatic landscapes. Although the island are tropical, for instance, there is snow on the summits of their mains mountains.
