Antipode guide
What Is on the Opposite Side of Earth?
The opposite side of Earth is not a vague region. It is one precise coordinate: your antipode. Antipode.site turns that coordinate into an interactive globe experience.
The exact opposite point
A straight line through Earth's center exits at the antipode. This point has the opposite latitude and a longitude shifted by 180 degrees.
Why the answer is often ocean
Because oceans cover most of the planet, the opposite side of Earth from a city is often remote ocean rather than another city.
Why a globe helps
The easiest way to check is to use an interactive globe, because flat maps make the idea feel less intuitive.
