Gulf ▸ Facts ▸ Comments ▸ News ▸ Videos
A gulf is a large inlet from an ocean into a landmass, typically with a narrower opening than a bay. The term was used traditionally for large, highly indented navigable bodies of salt water that are enclosed by the coastline. Many gulfs are major shipping areas, such as the Persian Gulf, Gulf of Mexico, Gulf of Finland, and Gulf of Aden.
