I'd suggest you download the coastline shapefiles: http://tile.openstreetmap.org/processed_p.tar.bz2 (357 MB) http://tile.openstreetmap.org/shoreline_300.tar.bz2 (48 MB) Then you can choose whether to render the shapefile directly or import them it PostgreSQL. The shoreline_300 data has been simplified so that it can be rendered more efficiently at lower zooms. The polygons in both shapefiles have been gridded into squares with some overlap.
