5) Africa and its coastline – With a total land area of over 30 million square kilometers, Africa is the second largest continent on Earth. However, it has the shortest coastline with only an approximated 26,000 kilometers.

In contrast, Europe has a coastline of over 32,000 kilometers despite having a total land area of close to 10 million square kilometers. Africa’s coastline is such due to the continent’s shape and the presence of bays in its perimeter.
