The South Pole is located in Antarctica and therefore is on a continent. The ground is permanently frozen there with over a mile of ice above the land mass.

The North Pole is conversely NOT on a continent, it actually is not even located on land. The geographic North Pole is located in the Arctic Ocean and seasonally frozen over.
