Soufriere is the island`s northernmost and youngest volcano. It is a stratovolcano with a crater lake. Soufriere violently erupted in 1718, 1812, 1902, 1971, and 1979. The eruption of May 7, 1902, just hours before the eruption of Mount Pelee on Martinique, killed 1,680 people. The last recorded eruption was in April 1979; due to advance warning there were no casualties. |
