antipodes [Gr.,=having feet opposite], people or places diametrically opposite on the globe.

For example, New Amsterdam and St. Paul, small islands nearly midway between S Africa and Australia, are more nearly antipodal to Washington, D.C., than is any other land.antipodes[an′tip·ə‚dēz] (geodesy) Diametrically opposite points on the earth.
