island hop
Jump between landmasses
Island hop means to travel between islands in a series, typically visiting several in succession rather than staying on one.
The term evokes leisure travel through archipelagos like Greece or the Caribbean: We spent two weeks island hopping in Thailand.
It can also describe military strategy of capturing islands sequentially, as in the Pacific theater of World War II.
