Best Answer

A lake is a large, landlocked, naturally occurring stretch of water, usually fresh. A sea is a division of an ocean or a large body of salt water partially enclosed by land.

Some bodies of water referred to as "seas" by convention, such as the Caspian Sea and the Salton Sea are actually lakes, as they are not connected to the ocean.
