The point exactly opposite Sudan's center through the Earth's core
If you dug a tunnel straight through the Earth's center from Sudan, you'd surface nearest to Avatoru, French Polynesia, about 322 km from the exact antipodal point — most of the Earth's surface opposite any given point is open ocean, so an exact land match is rare.
