Temporary island formed in August 2006
Home Reef is a submarine volcano located between Metis Shoal and Late Island. Eruptions occasionally produce ephemeral islands.
An eruption of Home Reef volcano in August 2006 produced pumice rafts which floated to Fiji and Vanuatu in November 2006, and eastern Australia in April 2007. The 2006 eruption built a temporary island.
