Stromboli

One of the Aeolian Islands in Tyrrhenian Sea, with live volcano in the middle of it. It is constantly active with minor eruptions. Intervals between eruptions range from a few minutes to a few hours. When we were there, it took about 25 mins between eruptions.

The plume of smoke doesn't seem to be big, but when we consider that Stromboli rises 926 m above sea level then we see that the plume is about I'd say 150-200m.
