Antipode Calculator: Click any city name or location on the map or entering the latitude and longitude coordinates, you can easily find its antipode (the opposite side of the world).


Have you ever wondered where you would end up if you dug a hole straight down from your feet, through the Earth's center, to the other side? Points located at opposite ends of the Earth's diameter are called "antipodes." The term "antipode" means "opposite feet," so when we look at the antipodes of each continent, we find that Australia mostly falls into the Atlantic Ocean, Europe and Africa largely end up in the Pacific Ocean, the United States lands in the Indian Ocean, and Antarctica lies opposite the Arctic Ocean... Want to know where Asia would end up? Whose feet would be opposite yours?

The term "Antipode," also known as the "Antipodal Point," is used in geography and geometry. A line connecting any point on a sphere with the sphere's center intersects the sphere at another point; these two points, located at the ends of a diameter, are called antipodes. In other words, starting from a location on Earth and traveling through the Earth's center, the point you reach on the other side is the antipode of your starting location.

How to calculate antipode?

From the coordinates on a sphere, take the opposite value of the latitude (which is to put or remove a minus sign -), and remove or add 180 to the longitude (to keep it in the interval [-180; +180]) for GPS coordinates.
Characteristics of the antipodes:
  • The local time between antipodes differs by 12 hours.
  • Antipodes have opposite seasons.
  • The distance between antipodes is 20,000 kilometers.


Due to the large amount of water on Earth, it is likely that the antipode of the city or location you choose is in the water. For example, the antipode of Times Square in New York, USA, is roughly along the coast of Australia, and the antipode of Tokyo, Japan, is roughly along the coast of Uruguay.
