CAMBAY, GULF OF

This article appears in Volume V05, Page 82 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: CAL-CAR
CAMBAY, GULF OF , an inlet in the
coast
  of
India
 , in the
Gujarat
  division of Bombay. It is about 8o m. in length, but is shallow and abounds in shoals and sandbanks. It is supposed that the
depth
  of water in this gulf has been decreasing for more than two centuries past. The tides, which are very high, run into it with amazing velocity, but at low water the bottom is left nearly dry for some distance below the
latitude
  of the town of
Cambay
 . It is, however, an important inlet, being the channel by which the valuable produce of central
Gujarat
  and the British districts of
Ahmedabad
  and
Broach
  is exported; but the railway from Bombay to
Baroda
  and
Ahmedabad
 , near
Cambay
 , has for some time past been attracting the
trade
  to itself.
