Global Volcanism Program | Image GVP-07411

Isla el Tigre in Honduras is seen here across the Gulf of Fonseca from Punta el Chiquirín on the eastern tip of El Salvador.  The morphologically youthful volcano rises 783 m above the gulf and is the southernmost in Honduras.  A valley on the SW flank (right) extends to the sea and disrupts the symmetry of the volcano.
