Jailolo is a stratovolcanic complex on a peninsula (Jailolo Bay), west of Halmahera island. It has lava flows on the eastern flank, a small caldera at the west and south-west sides of the mountain, and hot springs along the north-west coast of the caldera. This small volcanic island was formed by the Kailupa cone, off the southern coast of the peninsula.[1]
