Ekarma volcano with its summit lava dome rises above the sea SE of the volcano, with an older hydrothermally altered volcanic edifice to the right. The small 5 x 7.5 km island of Ekarma lies 8.5 km north of Shiashkotan Island in the central Kuriles. The 1170-m-high summit lava dome was emplaced during the first historical eruption, in 1776-79.
