The Drake Passage is the body of water located between the southern tip of South America (Cape Horn) and Antarctica. It is known for its strong and turbulent currents, particularly the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, which flows from west to east around Antarctica and connects the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans. This flow contributes to the passage's rough seas and unpredictable weather, making it a challenging route for maritime navigation. The exchange of water masses in this area plays a crucial role in global ocean circulation and climate.
