The Panama Canal, located (unsurprisingly) in Panama, Central America.
That would be the Panama Canal.
The Panama Canal connects the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean.
That would be the Panama Canal, from Colon on the Caribbean Sea to Balboa on the Gulf of Panama
The purpose of the Panama canal is to connect the Pacific ocean to the Atlantic ocean. Without it ships would have to round South America to make that journey, so the canal saves a lot of time.
The canal is in Panama, a country in Central America. It connects the Caribbean Sea, and the Pacific Ocean. If it were not there, your ship would have to go through the Strait of Magellan, near Antarctica.
Panama would gain full controll by December 30, 1999
in a deep whole by Antarctica
A boat traveling from the Pacific to the Atlantic via the Panama Canal would be traveling northwest. Although the Pacific Ocean is west of the Atlantic Ocean in Central America, at Panama the Caribbean Sea arm of the Atlantic is to the north, and the Pacific to the south. Canal builders took advantage of natural lakes and valleys, so the actual orientation of the canal is NW to SE. (see linked map) Going from the Atlantic (Caribbean Sea) to the Pacific, ships travel to the southeast.
The boat would be travelling west. But..... the direction of travel through the canal is from North West to South East.
You would have to cross the Pacific Ocean from California to Japan.
The Atlantic and Pacific oceans..
While in California, you would go swimming in the Pacific Ocean.You'd probably end up in the Pacific Ocean, if you didn't, i think you'd have real problems. lolthe ocean that you would be swimming in would be the Pacific Ocean. hope this answers your question.
