Résumé

The Drake Passage is a significant body of water connecting the southwestern part of the Atlantic Ocean (Scotia Sea) with the southeastern part of the Pacific Ocean, extending into the Southern Ocean. It lies between South America's Cape Horn and the South Shetland Islands of Antarctica, named after the 16th-century English explorer Sir Francis Drake. Known for its treacherous conditions, it is considered one of the most challenging voyages for ships due to the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, which meets no land resistance, leading to waves that can exceed 40 feet (12 meters).
This passage is not only a maritime challenge but also a critical choke point influencing global oceanic circulation and climate.
