Everything about Massachusetts Bay totally explained
Massachusetts Bay is one of the large
bays of the
Atlantic Ocean that form the distinctive shape of the coastline of the
U.S. state of
Massachusetts. Its waters extend 65
miles (105 km) into the Atlantic Ocean. The bay is enclosed on the north by
Cape Ann; at the bay's westernmost point are situated
Boston Harbor and the city of
Boston. Just south of Massachusetts Bay is
Cape Cod Bay.
Sometimes Cape Cod Bay is construed as part of Massachusetts Bay; under this interpretation, the name "Massachusetts Bay" denotes the entire rectangular area of ocean between Cape Ann and Cape Cod.
Massachusetts Bay is itself one corner of a much larger bay, the
Gulf of Maine, which reaches from
Cape Cod all the way up to
Nova Scotia.
The bay gave its name to the
Massachusetts Bay Colony, one of the two predecessor colonies of the current state of Massachusetts.
Massachusetts Bay is one of the bays adjacent to Massachusetts that give it the name
Bay State. The others are
Narragansett Bay,
Buzzards Bay and
Cape Cod Bay.
