That comes in at just under 2 miles or two/thirds of a League (Land).
That is about 2.5 times the size of Xerxes' Pontoon Bridges.
The low water level here, even during high tide, allows for wooden poles to be used the whole distance and many powerful blessings (help of the gods) makes it possible.
There is a section in the middle where the bridge can be raised, like a draw bridge, that allows the passage of the Viking style ships that are low draft vessels.
