Discover Oceans and Seas, Pacific Ocean

The Pacific Ocean is the largest ocean in the world, covering an area of over 155 million square kilometers. It extends from the Arctic in the north to the Antarctic in the south and is bounded by the continents of Asia, North America and South America.

The Pacific Ocean has been a significant part of human history since ancient times, from the first Polynesian sailors to the Spanish explorers of the 16th century.

The Pacific Ocean is home to a diverse array of marine life, including whales, dolphins, sea turtles, fish and coral. Many species are endangered, threatened or vulnerable due to overfishing, habitat destruction and pollution.

The Pacific Ocean is a major contributor to the global economy, providing food, minerals, oil and gas, and transportation routes.

Recreational activities associated with the Pacific Ocean include scuba diving, surfing, sailing, fishing and whale watching.

Pollution from oil spills, chemical dumping, plastic debris and other sources is a major threat to the health of the Pacific Ocean.

The United Nations has designated the Pacific Ocean as a fragile ecosystem, and much work is being done to protect and conserve its biodiversity
