Bohai Bay (Chinese: 渤海湾; pinyin: Bóhǎi Wān) is one of the three bays forming the Bohai Gulf, the innermost gulf of the Yellow Sea, in northeastern China. It borders Hebei province and Tianjin Municipality.

The three bays are Laizhou Bay to the south, Liaodong Bay to the north, and Bohai Bay to the west.

There are several oil fields located offshore in the Bohai Bay. Jidong Nanpu contains 7.5 billion barrels, while the bay as a whole is estimated to contain 146 billion barrels.[1]
