Horizon
A very rough or "ball park" figure is about 20 miles. Comment: It depends on your height above the water. You could only see 20 miles if you were well above sea level. If you are standing more or less at sea level, with your eyes just a few feet above the water level, you could see only about 3 or 4 miles. For example: Eye level at 6 feet: horizon at about 3 miles. Eye level at 24 feet: horizon at about 6 miles. Eye level at 96 feet: horizon at about 12 miles. Eye level at 270 feet : horizon at about 20 miles.

Sun appears to be at eye-level and go round parallel to the horizon returning to first point of observation

original answer of 45 mi was way off. Wikipedia's horizon article gives the equationdistance = square root of (height * 13). From the article:For an observer standing on the ground with h = 1.70 m (average eye-level height), the horizon appears at a distance of 4.7 km. 4.7 km = ~ 3 miles or ~2.5 nautical mile.
