Sound (geography)

The Aldersund in Helgeland, Norway separates the island of Aldra (left side) from the continent

In geography, a sound is a smaller body of water usually connected to a sea or an ocean. A sound may be an inlet that is deeper than a bight and wider than a fjord; or a narrow sea channel or an ocean channel between two land masses, such as a strait; or also a lagoon between a barrier island and the mainland.[1][2]
