View from Florida's west coast (4)

I believe the answer is:

gulf

(Other definitions for gulf that I've seen before include "Abyss" , "Unbridgeable disparity" , "Deep inlet of the sea almost surrounded by land" , "Large inlet of the sea" , "Wide difference of opinion" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
