Map of Sea

Sea, general designation for all the salt water in all the specific oceans and seas that cover a large area of the surface of the earth. The name is particularly given to bodies of salt water such as the Mediterranean Sea that are partially landlocked and are smaller than the ocean to which they are generally connected. The name is also used to designate inland bodies of salt water, such as the Caspian Sea, and has occasionally been given to inland bodies of fresh water, such as the Sea of Galilee (Lake Tiberias).
