A maritime waterbody are all those waters under the influence of the tides. You can
review article for natural=coastline. The coastline should be placed in the "high
water mean spring":https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:natural%3Dcoastline

Botany Bay is part of the ocean, not a separate inland waterbody. You can see
in the terrain the mark of the tides.

This is only a colloquial thing. That lacks of verifiability. For example, Dead
Sea is not a sea, really is a lake.

The rules for tagging are in the OSM wiki. Even in Wikipedia says Botany Bay is
an oceanic bay:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Botany_Bay
The coastline is a natural feature. You don't mix it with political things. You
can use the tag boundary=maritime + maritime=base_line to delineate political
inner waters. Even the boundary runs in the mouth of Botany Bay, therefore is
respected local things that you mean.
Here there are instructions to tag an
estuary:https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_Features/Coastline-River_transit_placement
Sorry, in the last paragraph is boundary=maritime + border_type=baseline
for outer edge of internal waters.
