This is a list of earthquakes in 1911. Only magnitude 6.0 or greater earthquakes appear on the list. Lower magnitude events are included if they have caused death, injury or damage. Events which occurred in remote areas will be excluded from the list as they wouldn't have generated significant media interest. All dates are listed according to UTC time.
Numerous earthquakes struck the area at the time of a major eruption of Taal Volcano. The earthquakes were not large but enough of them struck to cause some homes to be destroyed or damaged. No magnitude or depth information is known.
