The nearest point in the British Isles to America is the west coast of Ireland, specifically the area around County Donegal. From there, the distance to the eastern coast of the United States, particularly to places like Newfoundland in Canada, is about 2,000 miles. This proximity makes it one of the closest land points in Europe to North America.
