The epicentre

Raoul Island is massive volcanic cone, with a caldera at its centre and two volcanic lakes. Ironically, at present, Blue Lake appears green and Green Lake is blue.

Produced by New Zealand Geographic

Green Lake erupted in 2006, tragically killing a DOC worker and raising the level of the lake eight metres.
