The extraordinary point where the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean meets, without mixing! 

Did you know that the two oceans do not mix?

 

Watch the video that proves it to you. 

This phenomenon can be seen in the Gulf of Alaska 

Why do these waters not mix? 

Because there is a huge difference in salinity between the clear water that comes from melting glaciers, which is cool and low in salt, while the water from the second ocean has a high salt concentration. 

Therefore, the two oceans have different densities, which make them almost impossible to mix.
