Answer:
Bays and gulfs are concavities formed by tidal erosion in the coastline of an ocean, lake, or sea. The difference between a bay and a gulf is not clearly defined, but the term bay usually refers to a body of water somewhat smaller than a gulf. ... Fjords—deep, glacially formed inlets—are also included.

The gulf is a large body of water that penetrates the land. It is generally larger than a bay and connects the land and sea.
A strait is a naturally formed, narrow, typically passable waterway that connects two larger bodies of water.
A strait is a narrow passage of water connecting two seas or two other large areas of water.
