Brunei Bay is on the northwestern coast of
Borneo island, in
Brunei and
Malaysia . Brunei Bay is located east of
Bandar Seri Begawan , Brunei.
It is the ocean gateway to the isolated Temburong District of Brunei, separated from the rest of Brunei by the Malaysian Sarawak State surrounding it to the bay. A 30-kilometre (19 mi) roadway connecting the Muara and Temburong districts of Brunei, completed in 2018, crosses over the Brunei bay. The section going across the Brunei bay measures in at 14-kilometre (8.7 mi).

mudflats and sandflats,
seagrass beds,

mangroves , beach forest and
sandstone islets. These have been identified by
