📍 Destination Overview
Muara, a port town on Brunei's northeastern coast, is home to the country's main deepwater port and naval base. Its kilometers-long white-sand beach is a favorite for picnics and sunsets. Nearby Seria, where oil was struck in 1929, is celebrated by the Billionth Barrel Monument and an oil museum, while mangrove cruises reveal the rare proboscis monkey.
