 Forty year after the main explosion, in 1927, volcanic activity was seen in the sea covering the old caldera, between the sites of the two northernmost former volcanoes of Krakatau, where the greatest activity had occurred at the time of the cataclysm. A series of eruption 185 m below the surface of the sea resulted in the emergence of three new islands, one after the other. They were all son destroyed by surf. A fourth emerged from the sea on August 12th 1930. It remained above water, and was aptly named Anak Krakatau (child of Krakatau)
This young and active volcano has been growing around 6 feet a year and still continues doing so. It grew by the accumulation of ash, and suffered a devastating eruption in 1952, and other very destructive one in 1971. It is now 300 m high and 5 Km in diameter, and is still active spurting fire and cinder, this like moonlike landscape. It is lonely volcanic island in the middle of the sea. The northeast coast, north foreland and east foreland are now vegetated; the succession of vegetation is still at an early stage, Casuarinas equisetifolia (cemara) being the dominant tree
Within this area is the UNESCO
World Heritage site, the Ujung Kulon National
Park. This reserve protects many endangeredspecies, one of them being the Javan rhinoceros. The rhinoceros has a
distinctive one horn on its head. Only 50 to 60 remain of this creature. Apart
from the rhinoceros, the park is home to many flora and fauna. 57 species of
flora found in the park are considered to be rare. Rangers could oversee
travelers who want to climb the peak of the mountain. Around the area are
magnificent lava formations and volcanic stones that were submerged in the sea,
which could be explored by experienced divers. Tourists may trek within the
isle. For those wanting to explore the clear waters of the park, swimming,
snorkeling, and even fishing is allow
