✅️How the Panama Canal Works! The Panama Canal is a 50-mile man-made waterway connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, saving ships time and fuel by avoiding a long trip around South America. It uses a system of locks to raise and lower ships as they pass through, with water levels controlled by gates and valves. Ships enter the canal, are elevated to 26 meters (85 feet) above sea level, and then lowered back down as they exit. Artificial lakes and channels ensure smooth navigation. An engineering marvel, the canal plays a key role in global trade, handling millions of tons of cargo annually.
