Where is 88 north latitude 88 longitude?

Answer 1

'Longitude' can be either 'east' or 'west'. Since you didn't specify the direction of the

longitude, your question describes two different points.

88° North / 88° West

That point is 138 miles from the north pole, in the Arctic Ocean about 400 miles due

north of the coast of Ellesmere Island in Nunavut (Canada).

88° North / 88° East

That point is also 138 miles from the north pole, in the Arctic Ocean about 470 miles

north of the Russian island of Ostrov Komsomolets.

The two points are 276 miles apart.

Answer 2

A point at 88 degrees north latitude and 88 degrees east longitude would be in the Arctic Ocean, near the North Pole. It would be quite close to the geographic North Pole itself, with cold temperatures and likely covered in ice.
