I remember playing Chrono Cross when I was young, and one thing always made me very curious: there's a passage in the upper left corner of the map, but a flow keeps you from crossing it. I always though eventually it would be possible to go through it, but I finished the game and I'm pretty sure I couldn't. I was just wondering if it's intentionally there, if it's a reference (I actually never got very far on Chrono Trigger, so I'm not sure -.-), if it's crossable, etc. It bugs me that a place like that is just sitting on a world map and not doing anything.
Nope, no way to travel that path. That passageway is a crossing to the mainland, and I think one of the characters (Norris or Doc, I believe) mentions that the currents are very strong at this time of year and cannot be traversed (at least with the small boats you get to use). It's there to let you know that you're only looking at a small part of the Chrono world map - though exactly where on the map you are is not fully explained, it's implied that you're somewhere near the village at the bottom-left corner of this map, which is the village of Porre.
