I have passed over the Swino strait going to       and through the ferry in Swinoujscie a few times, and I don't have       recollection of the passage being wider than your typical river.       But, Wikipedia says the water is brackish.              When it comes to the Vistual lagoon is more clear-cut. I have not       been in that area, but I have been to Klaipedia in Lithunia and       travelled across the water to the Courunian spit. And that lagoon       is definitely the sea. The ferry is about 1 km across.              > BTW, I also compiled a list of the two-coast countries using the same       > criteria:              There are probably more that can be added to that list, but it follows       from the discussion above that Lithuania and Kaliningrad are two-coast       countries.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
