Where do Dory and Nemo live?
What am I missing about "crossing the ocean" in both related movies?
In (non-direct cites):
"Finding Nemo" (2003) they had to "cross the ocean" to reach Sydney and find Nemo, so I assumed they lived somewhere by US west coast.
"Finding Dory" (2016) Dory would have to "cross the ocean" to live in California, so this suggests eastern coast of Australia or Asia in general or Japan or Oceania.
Where do Dory and Nemo live?
Best Answer
According to Wikipedia (as well as every other link when I searched), Marlin and Nemo live in an anemone in the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. The GBR is located off of the North Eastern coast of Australia. It's about 1200 nautical miles to Sydney, Australia, off the South Eastern coast. So while they don't have to cross the entire Pacific Ocean, Nemo still has quite a journey.

A fun fact is that Clown fish actually do live (in real life) in Sea Anemones, in the GBR.
