Kilauea from a helicopter tour.

Pu`u `Ō `ō cinder cone is an active part of the kilauea shield volcano. Nearby magma enters the ocean at Pulama pali.
There are several skylights allowing magma to be seen from the air. This cone is south east of the Halema`uma`u crater.
A map of the kilauea system can be found here.
