Lopevi Volcano - John Seach
The volcano previously had two villages but the island was evacuated in 1960's due to ongoing volcanic activity.
Lopevi volcano is noted for the periodic eruptions which produce a wide variety of eruption types. The island is not inhabited, but ash eruptions may deposit ash on the neighbouring islands of Ambrym, Epi, and Paama. The island is subjected to cultural restrictions which prohibit access to the volcano for women.
