Bothnian Bay Bothnian Bay is the northern part of the Gulf of Bothnia with Sweden to the west and Finland to the east. It is bordered on the south by the Northern Quark ( Kvarken ), which, at its shallowest, is only eighty-two (82) feet deep. Sometime within the next 2,000 years Bothnian Bay will become a large freshwater lake because the land is still rising.
