In some of the recent decades, several new islands have been observed in the oceans. These islands can be considered as rare natural beauty and true treasure on the Earth's globe.

But why they were not observed earlier by the human eye can be read in the following lines.

Hunga Ha'apai, Tonga

For more than a month in 2015, the Pacific volcano in the Pacific threw grace and big magma in the air. In the region known as the "Ring of Fire", after the grace came to the formation of the new island called Hunga Tonga. It extends to a surface of 1.55 square kilometers.

The Jadid Islands and Sholan, Yemen

They were formed in 2011 and 2013 in the Red Sea, in the Zubair archipelago between Africa and the Arabian islands. Scientists think that tectonic activities, which have led to the formation of these two islands, may reveal so far the volcanic activity never recorded in this region.

Nishinoshima, Japan

Four years ago, after the volcanic eruption in the Pacific, a small island, which continues to grow, was born, until it joined the near Nishinoshima Island. The Japanese Coast Guard announced in 2015 that the island has grown 12 times more compared to its size

Zalzala Koh, Pakistan

Satellite imagery shows that after the 7.8 earthquake of the Richter, 233 kilometers southeast of Dalband in Pakistan, the Zalzala island came out of the sea. It was not long overdue that tourists began to visit the island, despite warnings about the risk of toxic vapors emerging from earthquakes. The surface of this island is covered with mud, sand and rocks.

Houm Rif, Tonga

Houm Rif represents the so-called "eternal island" - what is born, it suffers corrosion, is formed again, then it again suffers ... This is caused by the underwater volcano in the South Pacific, not far from the Late and Vava'u islands in the Tofua volcano In Tonga. The island so far has surfaced over the sea in 1852, 1857, 1984 and 2006.

Metis Shoal, Tonga

It is about the land under the volcano, located between the islands of Kao and Late in Tonga. The volcano was observed for the first time in 1851, when magma and dust on the surface of the sea formed the island. The latest eruption occurred in 1995 when the island was raised at 43 meters above sea level.

amazing info and i am happy to follow you in support

Very few people understand why this is happening in greater numbers. We will see major geological changes on Earth. We are being influenced by a celestial body that is close to our inner solar system. The planets react to Electromagnetic influences that are being emitted.
