Peninsula, Island, and Bay are related to geography but the cape isn't.

So, the right answer 'Cape'.

Island is the answer as it is totally surrounded by water unlike rest of three.

Peninsula = Land almost surrounded by a water.

Island = Piece of a land surrounded by water.

Bay = An inlet of the sea with a wider opening than a gulf.

Cape = Head of land running into the sea so the answer is bay.

Island is also having a characteristic of shoreline. In Islands also there are beaches and resorts. Bay is the correct answer.

This one is up for debate. Your answer is right but so it's mine. I said island was the odd out. Think.

A peninsula, a bay and a cape are all characteristics of a shoreline. A bay is referred to the wholesome. Without a inward shape of the shoreline, there would be no bay.

An island is not a characteristic of a shoreline.
