The first time my mother discovered that the UK was an island was when I went there and I had mentioned travelling to France from there.
The first time she found out Manhattan was an island was when I took her there and she asked why we were going under such a large tunnel from New Jersey.
She was in her 50s at that point. Not knowing a shipping route pales in comparison.
