The Ten Degree Channel is a channel that separates the Andaman Islands and Nicobar Islands from each other in the Bay of Bengal. The two sets of islands together form the Indian Union Territory (UT) of Andaman and Nicobar Islands. This channel is 150 kilometres (93 mi) wide from north to south,[1] and approximately 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) long from east to west. It has minimum depth of 7.3m and lies from east to west on the 10-degree line of latitude north of the equator,[2] hence the name.
