Aaargh! I tried about 10 different spellings of Huron except the right one.

Maybe accept Xanti for Xanthi? (Got it anyway, just a suggestion to help out others.)

Channel Islands National Park is a National Park in California. I'm a NPS junkie and honestly thought of that first and was very confused because the largest island does not begin with J. It took me a moment to switch tracks.

Nice! I thought Akureyri was Iceland's second largest city but perhaps that's only if you consider urban area

I was thinking of anything Greek sounding with an X. I would've tried Xanthia, but didn't need the A at the end. No idea why. Got lucky.

The term "Channel Islands" refers specifically to the archipelago off the coast of Normandy. The Isle of Wight is an island in the English channel, but not a Channel Island.

I tried "end" too, after apparently misspelling estuary, which was my first answer. I mean... "end" could definitely answer the question, yeah?
