I experienced this recently while staying on the North side of Cyprus. If I headed east or west the sea was on the wrong side, compared with where it is at home (south coast of UK). I also get confused when I'm in the southern hemisphere, and the Sun goes across the sky the wrong way, and shadows lengthen on the wrong side of objects.

Ronda in Spain is the only place I've felt agoraphobic. There are mountains on the horizon and it felt like they were an unsettlingly long way away.
