How big is the inner sea, justing asking because I want to place a sea faring campaign in there that really needs a lot of space (talking atlantic ocean here).
The inner sea's more akin to the Mediterranean than the Atlantic. The Arcadian Ocean's probably a better bet (it's the ocean west of Varisia), but if you're looking for more trade and stuff like that, the Inner Sea's a lot more well-traveled.
I've been giving Golarion's seas and oceans some thought recently - one simple way to keep different parts of the campaign world distinct is to have tempestuous, torrential cores to each body of water.
Limited trade and travel and make very different campaign settings on the same world believable. Ocean names like the Savage Sea, Lost Sea and Wintersea can convey that ferocity nicely.
I personally hope that Golarion will contain many, separate, smallish continents to ensure lots of room for future campaigns. I'm thinking decades ahead - because I think Golarion will be a place people will want to visit for a long time!
