The hard rock that is left jutting out into the sea when a bay is formed is called a "headland." Headlands are typically composed of more resistant rock that withstands erosion better than the surrounding softer materials, creating a prominent feature along the coastline. They often provide beautiful views and serve as important habitats for marine life.
