The island volcano Stromboli erupted sending lava down it’s flank and into the ocean. Stromboli is a very active volcano and frequently displays signs of volcanism. Located in the Tyrrhenian Sea between the “foot” of Italy and the “ball” of Sicily, the volcano protrudes about 3000 meters (10,000 feet) from the sea floor to it’s peak. There’s a map below that shows the location.

Ciao tutti. My name is also Enrico. My father is from Lipari – one of the Eolian islands. My wife and I visited these islands in 07 – we climbed to the top of Volcano, and visited Stromboli. Alas, whilst it was releasing puffs of smoke occasionally, we saw no lava.
What an amazing place.
