Answer 2

The Indian Ocean is located between Africa and Austral-Asia and the Southern Ocean.

There are many islands in the Indian Oceans, among the most well-known are:

• Mauritius
• Seychelles
• Reunion (France)
• Madagascar
• The Comores (Spain)
• Maldives (Portugal)
• Sri Lanka, formerly known as Ceylon

The name originates from the location around the Indian penisula. The Indian Ocean is actually the youngest of the major oceans.

The Indian Ocean is the world’s third largest ocean and covers 20% of the Earth’s surface, after the Pacific and the Atlantic Oceans. In size the Indian Ocean is comparable with roughly 5.5 times the size of the USA.

The greatest width of the ocean is between western Australia and eastern coast of Africa: 1,000km or 620miles.

The lowest point is in the Java Trench which is about 7,258 metres (23,812ft.) deep. The average depth is about 3,890 metres (12,762 ft.).

The temperatures of the Indian Ocean depend on the location and on the ocean's currents. The nearer to the Equator the warm the water tends to be. The temperature of 28 degrees Celsius/82 degrees Fahrenheit or higher is reached in coastal regions near the equator.
