Best Answer

Salton Sea is located in Southern California.

The Gulf of California is actually the "Sea of Cortés". The Gulf of Mexico is a sea. The Gulf of Alaska is a sea. The Gulf of Maine is a sea. Chesapeak Bay is a sea. I could go on and on.

Further, The Great Salt Lake in Utah could easily be called a Sea, as the Dead Sea and Caspian Sea are both in fact saline lakes.

So the short answer is the, in the US, we simply don't like to call anything a sea.
