Shimanami, Japan
Although this route is significantly shorter than previous ones (just some 40 miles long), it covers over 6 little islands in the Japanese Sea, so you will definitely have a very pleasant time sailing from one island to another.
From Land’s End to John O’Groats, England and Scotland
This classic cycling route from the furthest best island point on the far north covers almost the entire British isle and is almost 1000 miles long. You will see very old rocks, hills and green pastures.
