I rather like the system that the first time you go somewhere you have to make it on foot. After that you can insta teleport there.
A bit like how the flight paths in WOW worked.
An example closer to your meaning is Diablo.

As you pointed out, insta-teleporting reduces and trivializes the world size unless it's linked directly to gameplay - as it is in classic EQ. You can teleport, just find a class that can take you and know the portal locations i.e. engage with the game world. I still think EQ's is the most elegant, class-affirming, world enriching portal system yet designed.

Boats are time consuming by design (and make the world feel more like a world - I was blown away the first time I crossed OOT).
