What continents touch all 5 ocean?
If the "5 ocean" in question are the Arctic, the Antarctic/Southern, the Atlantic, the Pacific, and the Indian... none. No continent touches both the Arctic and Southern oceans. In fact, the exact boundaries of the Southern Ocean are not well defined, but using the 60th parallel definition, the only continent that touches the Southern Ocean is Antarctica, which touches no other ocean.If you exclude the Southern Ocean and ask instead what continents touch all four oceans, the answer is "maybe Asia, depending on exactly where you draw the boundary between Asia and Europe and precisely what bodies of water you consider to be part of the Atlantic."
