A bay is of course smaller and is man made. The do have fish but don't have coral like the oceans.

The main difference is that a gulf is a 'large deep bay', it is a deep place in the earth, an abyss. A bay is a large opening into land, but not nearly as deep as a gulf. The difference therefore is in depth
