Ambitle is a stratovolcano, reaching 450 metres (1,480 feet) above sea level. It last erupted in about 350 BCE based on radiocarbon dating. Its caldera, 3 kilometres (2 miles) wide, contains thermal areas on its western side. Venting of hydrothermal water also occurs in coral reefs to the west of this island.
