Henry Seamount

Underwater landmass in the Canary Islands

Henry Seamount is a seamount of Cretaceous age southeast of El Hierro in the Canary Islands. It is 660 metres (2,170 ft) high above the seafloor and covered with sediments. Despite its old age, it shows evidence of recent eruptions and of hydrothermal activity in the last 3,350 years. This activity may be either mediated by groundwater flow from El Hierro or by recent eruptions of Henry Seamount.
