What is the most narrow point between the Atlantic and pacific ocean?

If you mean the most narrow navigable "passage" then it's the Panama Canal, given the Pacific Ocean flows into the canal, then exits into the Caribbean Sea, which flows into the Atlantic. If you mean a natural "opening," then it's the "Drake Passage." From one source: "This opening connects the Pacific and Atlantic oceans and encircles Antarctica in a ring of cool water known as the Antarctic Circumpolar Current" (See related links below).
