The question actually is what is the difference between a gulf and a bay because a harbour is attached to the land where boats dock.

The best definition of difference between the two is, a gulf is, a large area of a sea or ocean partially enclosed by land, especially a long landlocked portion of sea opening through a strait. While a bay is, a body of water partially enclosed by land but with a wide mouth, affording access to the sea: so it looks like a gulf is larger than a bay
