10 Most Beautiful Bays In The World

A bay is understood to mean the coastal part of the sea, partially fenced off from the sea or ocean by land or rocks. As a rule, the water in the bay is calmer than in the surrounding sea and is a good place to park ships, which can shelter from the weather. If the bays are large and deep enough, they become natural harbors, which often have great economic and strategic importance. Many of the largest cities in the world are located on the shores of natural harbors. Today we look at some of the most beautiful bays in the world.
