The Mediterranean Sea connects the Atlantic Ocean to various bodies of water in southern Europe, northern Africa, and, ultimately, Asia. Traveling through the Strait of Gibraltar, one can access Spain, France, Italy, Greece, or the xxx countries before arriving in Turkey. From there, a traveler can access the Black Sea through the Dardanelles, the Sea of Marmara, and the Bosporus Strait. Some of the major islands in the Mediterranean Sea are Sicily, Sardinia, Corsica, Crete, Cyprus, Malta, and Rhodes. Rivers also flow into the Mediterranean Sea. Some of the largest are the Rhone, the Po, the Ebro, and the Nile (from Africa). Sadly, earthquakes and volcanoes do occur often up in this area.
