A string of small volcanic islands is most likely to form at a convergent ocean-ocean boundary. At this type of boundary, one oceanic plate subducts beneath another, leading to the melting of mantle materials and the creation of magma. This volcanic activity can result in the formation of volcanic island arcs, which are chains of islands located near the subduction zone.
