With 33 historical eruptions, the last one in 1977, the Volcano Island is a permanent danger zone. Taal Volcano has 47 craters and 4 maars (shallow, flat-floored craters). The conical crater which we prominent from the Tagaytay ridge is not the main crater. It’s an extinct crater. The Main Crater is inside the Taal Caldera (25 kms across). Inside the Taal Caldera, surrounding the Main Crater, is the Taal Lake (267 square kilometers). This is why it’s also referred to as the lake within a lake. Rate (above) and review (below) Taal Volcano. See map and directions.
