Laizhou Bay

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Laizhou Bay (Laizhou Wan, 莱州湾) is the southern arm of the Bohai Sea (also Known as the Bohai Gulf, or just Bo Hai), which is a large relatively shallow extension of the Korea Bay (Northern Yellow Sea) behind the Liaodong Peninsula to the north, and the Shandong Peninsula to the south. Both peninsulas are roughly triangular in shape and point towards the Bohai Strait (Bohai Haixia), the mouth opening out to the Yellow Sea via the southern region of the Korea Bay.
