Coral Sea, the largest sea in the world

When it comes to the world’s first ocean, many people think of the Pacific Ocean, which occupies half of the earth’s oceans, even if it is larger than the continents on the earth. And many people divide the earth into land and ocean, but in fact, sea and ocean are different. What is the difference? Initially, when geologists analyzed the area of the ocean, they determined a delimitation, and that delimitation was called the sea, which was called the sea.

Then there is a difference between the sea and the ocean. Then the question is, the first ocean is the Pacific Ocean, so what is the first ocean in the world? In this regard, perhaps many people will remain silent. Then, the world’s first sea is that sea area. Let’s take a look. When we look at geographic information, we will find that there is the world’s first sea in the Pacific Ocean—the Coral Sea.

What is the current position? To be precise, it is located in the eastern part of Australia and New Guinea, covering an area of 4.791,000 square kilometers, which is half the area of our country, and its area ranks first in the world. A vast sea area is not good for navigation. The so-called coral sea refers to the place where coral reefs gather, or are buried under the sea, or only show a small spot, which is why there is no such thing. For ships, this is an extremely dangerous place. Many ships come here and almost die forever. Ships hitting rocks and sunken ships are the only results of ships here.

The Coral Sea has a total area of 4.791,000 square kilometers, which is the largest sea in the world, equivalent to half of China's land area. The Coral Sea is located in the southwestern Pacific Ocean, east of Australia and New Guinea, west of New Caledonia and New Hebrides, south of the Solomon Islands, about 2,250 kilometers long from north to south, and about 2,414 kilometers wide from east to west. It is connected to the Tasman Sea to the south, the Solomon Sea to the north, the Pacific Ocean to the east, and the Arafura Sea to the west via the Torres Strait.

Therefore, over time, this is no longer an export for navigation, nor is it a shipping route for all countries. Although it is not very good for ships, it is a rare recreational place for human beings. The sea here is clear, and the seawater is very high in salinity and transparency, so you can directly see the seabed here.

In addition, due to the influence of the warm current, the water temperature here is kept at about 20 degrees throughout the year. It is the best place for people who like to watch marine life, because there are extremely rich marine resources, and all kinds of fish are available, just like the wild aquarium. , Some friends come to Australia to travel, you can come here to try it.
