The Bermuda Triangle , also known as the
Devil's Triangle , is a loosely-defined region in
the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean ,
where a number of aircraft and ships are said to
have disappeared under mysterious
circumstances. Most reputable sources dismiss
the idea that there is any mystery. The vicinity of
the Bermuda Triangle is one of the most heavily
traveled shipping lanes in the world, with ships
frequently crossing through it for ports in the
Americas, Europe , and the Caribbean islands.
Cruise ships and pleasure craft regularly sail
through the region, and commercial and private
aircraft routinely fly over it.
