The is the best drive-up view of Phantom Ship, although the short hike to Sun Notch affords a slightly closer one (2/3 of a mile distance instead of a mile)(about 1 km as opposed to 1 1/2 km).
Phantom Ship is the second largest island in the lake after Wizard Island, but it's much more ancient. It's the remains of a 400,000 year old lava plug, whereas the crater (caldera) itself was only formed 7,700 years ago in the explosion of Mt. Mazama
