If you are asking about the North Pole, it is because it can be found on the Arctic Ice Sheet which forms on top of the Arctic Ocean.
Yes, there is no landmass under the ice
No. The North Pole is located on a floating polar ice cap.
You can locate the North Pole on the Arctic Ocean sea ice.
The North Pole, as it is an imaginary point on the Arctic Ice Cap, which floats on top of the Arctic Ocean.
Ice
The frozen water at the South Pole is fresh water ice.
Yes, a submarine can pass under the North Pole because the Arctic Ocean is navigable, allowing submarines to travel under the thick ice sheet covering the North Pole. Submarines use specific routes to navigate under the ice, taking advantage of open water channels and thin ice areas.
At the South Pole, the elevation in excess of 9,000 feet is the thickness of the ice, plus, since the ice is so heavy, it pushes the continent under the pole to below sea level. The sea ice over the Arctic -- the site of the North Pole -- floats on sea water and is not as thick as the ice that covers the Antarctic continent.
The North Pole. It sits on a floating ice sheet.The North Pole is not on a continent. It is on a very large floating ice sheet in the Arctic Ocean.You'll find the North Pole in the Arctic Ocean.

In Ice sheets under the surface of the South Pole for one.
Yes it does, the South Point is a point of the Ice cap of the continent of Antarctica. At 14.0 million km2 (5.4 million sq mi), it is the fifth-largest continent, so there is a heck of a lot of land there, under a vast amount of ice.
