Bakanovi Volcano is located 16 km east of Bagana volcano on Bougainville, Papua New Guinea. The volcano is small and deeply eroded, and sits in an eroded 4 km diameter caldera.

The volcano is deeply eroded and has probably not erupted for a few hundred thousand years. Lava flows and pyroclastic flow deposits indicate a history of explosive and effuse eruptions.
