Sofugan is a steep vertical pinnacle that rises 99 m above the sea surface south of Tori-shima volcano. Its dramatic shape gave it its nickname "Lot's Wife Rocks."
In 1975, discolored sea water was observed about 500 m north of Sofugan, and the volcano was reclassified as active by the Japan Meteorological Agency.
