About Name That Water Body

A bay isn't a gulf, a creek isn't a brook, and a watershed isn't even a body of water — it's the land that drains into one. This quiz tests all of it: 15 rounds pulled from a full glossary of oceans, coastal features, rivers and streams, lakes and reservoirs, and wetlands, each one illustrated with its own icon.

Every round explains the answer afterward, so a wrong guess still teaches you something before the next one comes up.
