They're llike the bane of my 3DS existence. Even with Sharpedo surf, it's still extremely tedious; not to mention they usually all have the same set of Pokemon in them.
Seriously I know it got criticized, but IGN were rather spot on with that Too Much Water comment. Or at least, too much water with the same pokemon in each route.

They're so tiny.

The "Too Much Water" line has been actual crap ever since it was invented in 2003; the water routes are definitely easier to traverse in ORAS, I just didn't know why.
The water routes were originally what made Hoenn so unique among the regions, and in my opinion contributed significantly to the tropical theme of the region. They're really not that boring either, since there's diving to do to explore, some variation in Pokemon, and in ORAS secret base spots.
I guess I can see how some people don't like them, but I'm a little protective of my water routes.
