Yes, the Gulf of Mexico was once land. During the late Mesozoic era, approximately 100 million years ago, much of the region that is now the Gulf was covered by shallow seas and coastal environments. Over time, geological processes, including rising sea levels and tectonic activity, transformed this land into the expansive body of water we see today. The remnants of ancient landscapes are still present in the geological formations beneath the Gulf.
