bahia
A bahia is an inlet of a sea, ocean, or lake, surrounded by land except for an opening that is usually wider than the rest of the inland penetration. It is the geographical opposite of a cape or peninsula. Larger ones are often considered gulfs and narrower ones fjords. They are of great economic and strategic importance because they are ideal sites for building ports.
the port of Haina is a bahia (Haina is the largest industrial port in the Dominican Republic).
