Moving a fleet of 1000 ships out of Blackwater Bay without being noticed by someone holding down Dragonstone doesn't quite add up, especially when the dragons are roaming around. You pretty much have to go within a couple dozen of kilometres of Dragonstone to get your fleet out of Blackwater Bay. It suggests Daenaerys is completely blind on Dragonstone, when that shouldn't be the case.
To sneak up on Yara's fleet, sneak out of Blackwater Bay, pass by Dorne (and no one communicating it to Daenaerys) and then sneak up on the Unsullied army (while Daenaerys knows of the fleet now) only really works if the fleet is invisible.

Tyrion's whole plan didn't really work with the geography. Dragonstone is very close to King's Landing. Casterly Rock is clear on the other side of the island. You have to travel around Dorne and the Reach to get to Casterly Rock.
If the Lannisters are capable of marching an army across land so quickly to reach Highgarden, why wouldn't the Tyrell's just transport their army via land too. It would make a lot more sense just to strike at King's Landing and have the Tyrell's meet them at King's Landing to give them the local appearance, they were looking for.
If you look at the geography, the whole thing is pretty absurd. King's Landing is just too close to Dragonstone and too far, by sea, from the other key points to make any of this make sense.
