Answer 4

Don't like the ocean? Got something against it? Wanna totally be away from it? I would say either middle of Asia or the middle of Antarctica

Answer 5

The furthest point from the sea or, to give its technical name, the continental pole of inaccessibility (CPI), does lie in Asia. It is located at 46?? 17' N, 86?? 40' E, in the Dzoosotoyn Elisen in Xinjiang, China, and is 2648 kilometres from the nearest coastline, at Tianjin on the Yellow Sea. Although its location was calculated long ago, it wasn't visited by surveyor-explorers until 27 June 1986, when it was reached by British cousins Nicholas Crane and Richard Crane.
