You have to look it on a map. The volcano is a lake with an island. The lake is the volcano is also on an island in a freshwater lake on a Philippine island. https://www.google.com/maps/place/Taal+Volcano/@14.0057372,120.978403,12284m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x33bd738d30c66c4f:0x749396e27e5f3873!8m2!3d14.0112531!4d120.9976909

It's a volcanic island on a lake which is on an island on a lake.

Been there more than 10 years ago and hired a guide to take us near the lake on the island on horseback. It was officially off limits to tourists due to increased volcanic activity but a few extra pesos for the guides and horses took care of that problem.

Hope everyone nearby is safe. An eruption also means a major disruption to the lives of people living nearby, most of whom live very simple lives and are dependant on farming, fishing and tourism to sustain themselves.
