Although the eruptions can be classed into "four" main periods, it is more accurate to say it was "one" long eruption continuously occurring at a fluctuating rate, from 1963 to 1967. During this time, two smaller islands were also created but eroded below sea level. (see related link)

Is Surtsey still around?

Mount Surtsey is not extinct. In fact, it is not even dormant. A volcano is classified as "dormant" after 200 years of inactivity. Surstey erupted in 1963, and that was less than 200 years ago.
