A bay is place where a tiny bit of the sea, or a lake, pokes into the land. Seen from an airplane, a bay often looks as if a giant had takes a big bite out of the edge of the land and water had come in to fill the hole.
An inlet is also a body of water that pokes into the land. But an inlet is long and narrow - more like a finger than a bite.
