Bays are by definition parts of waterbodies and not independent waterbodies so they should not be tagged natural=water. The waterbody they are part of should of course be tagged either natural=water or be outside the coastline if it is a maritime bay (as in this case as tagged by https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/46829336). -- Christoph Hormann http://www.imagico.de/ _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
