Somewhat limited? The US faces two oceans and its east coast curves around to extend westward, too. All in all, the US has over 5,000 miles of coastline just in the lower 48 states (Alaska with its jagged coastline and Aleutian archipelago can double that total by itself, while Hawaii can tack on about another 750). It actually cracks the top 10 in terms of total coastline. Archipelagos like the Philippines and Indonesia rank higher, but the real kings are the Arctic countries where their coastlines are especially ragged (Russia, Greenland, Norway, and Canada are in the top 10, Canada is #1). Antarctica does rank in at #10, but that's the only Antarctic landmass to speak of.
