Scotland has over 800 islands, over 70 we visit by ferry, Scotland just as in Norway has many fjords/sealochs and a very indented, rugged coastline with many huge peninsulas, especially in the Northwest and a total coastline in excess of 16000 km / 10000 miles https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geography_of_Scotland#Coastline.
