This is a List of countries by length of coastline, in kilometers, based on data for the year 2005 by the CIA World Factbook. [1] Coastline of 0 indicates that the country is landlocked. However, because length of coastline is a fractal measurement, measurements of a country's coastline at different scales will be different - the more detail, the longer the coastline will be. This is why there are different amounts given for a country's coastline.
