The U.S. states of Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas border the Gulf on the north, which are often referred to as the "Third Coast" in comparison with the U.S. Atlantic and Pacific coasts, or sometimes the "south coast", in juxtaposition to the Great Lakes region being the "north coast."

  • The Gulf of Mexico is where hurricanes are created by God to smite sinners. There are five things that can always be found in the Gulf of Mexico: oil, sharks, wayward rubber dinghies with Cubans inside them, hurricane powder, and water. Occasionally, the Gulf of Mexico also enjoys a visit from tipsy Mexicans, girls going wild, and ballots from polled Floridian neighborhoods prone to voting Democrat. Because the Gulf of Mexico is Mexican, it is in the utmost interests of America to build a very large fence, or "levee", to prevent it from illegally immigrating to the United States, thus putting a strain on our spa healthcare system and public swimming schools, and stealing jobs from American bodies of warm, subtropical water.

(VOY: "One Small Step") In the 22nd century, the future Commander Charles Tucker III would drive his first car out to Chatkin Point. He would park at the shoreline, feel the ocean breeze coming off the Gulf, and spend time with his girlfriend staring at the moon. (ENT: "Precious Cargo") Tucker would often go swimming in the Gulf, sometimes inviting a girlfriend named Lisa. He would often tell T'Pol of his desire to show her some of the beaches of the Gulf. (ENT: "The Crossing") In March 2153, the strait between Florida and Cuba, which connected the Gulf to the Atlantic, was attacked during the Xindi incident. (ENT: "The Expanse") A 21st century-era political map of Earth was stored in the USS Enterprise's library computer in 2254. The location of the Gulf of Mexico was labeled on this map. This map was among the materials viewed by the Talosians when they scanned the Enterprise computer. (TOS-R: "The Cage" ) While discussing the prospect of leaving USS Voyager to live among a group of Humans settled in the Delta Quadrant, Chakotay reminded himself that he could never do it knowing that he would be giving up such prospects as seeing the sunrise over the Arizona desert, or swimming in the Gulf of Mexico on a summer's day. (VOY: "The 37's") The map used in the remastered "The Cage" was a Central Intelligence Agency map published in September 2008. The ice shelfs of Antarctica were masked with black ink. [1] Retroactive continuity: The Gulf of Mexico was seen on a 20th century-era map of the northern hemisphere. This map was among the materials viewed by the Talosians when they scanned the Enterprise computer. These maps were from educational texts available at the time of filming, 1964 . (TOS: "The Cage" )

It is part of the Atlantic Ocean through the Florida Straits between the U.S. and Cuba, and with the Caribbean Sea (with which it forms the American Mediterranean Sea) via the Yucatan Channel between Mexico and Cuba. Tidal ranges are extremely small due to the narrow connection with the ocean. The gulf basin is approximately 615,000 mi² (1.6 million km²). Almost half of the basin is shallow intertidal waters. At its deepest it is 14,383 ft (4,384 m) at the Sigsbee Deep, an irregular trough more than 300 nautical miles (550 km) long. It was probably formed approximately 300 million years ago as a result of the seafloor sinking.

(SCE eBook: Many Splendors) In 2371, while trapped in the Delta Quadrant, the crew of the USS Voyager discovered a colony comprised of humans descended from people who were kidnapped from Earth in 1937. The Voyager crew was offered the opportunity to remain in the Delta Quadrant with these humans. For his part, Commander Chakotay wanted to decline the offer and continue on to Earth, having a desire to swim again in the Gulf of Mexico. (VOY episode: "The 37's")
