caption_attribution_description: English: Pelumpong Spit (Tanjong Pelumpong) in Brunei.
context_page_description: Tanjong Pelumpong or the Pelumpong Spit in English is the easternmost point in the Brunei-Muara district of Brunei. Despite its name, it is now an island due to the artificially constructed 50m-wide, 10m-deep Muara cut, which separated the spit from the mainland to provide access to Muara Port.
context_section_description: Tanjong Pelumpong is located between the Brunei Bay to the south and the South China Sea to the north.  Administratively, it is part of Mukim Serasa of the Brunei-Muara district of Brunei and is separated from the mainland to the west by the 50m-wide, 10m-deep Muara cut.  This channel is protected at each side by breakwaters which extend seawards towards the northeast.
  The northern coast of Tanjong Pelumpong consists of the white sandy beach similar to that of Muara Beach.  This is because it was a continuation of the latter until the Muara Cut divided it into two.  There is however, a series of beach protection structures constructed here to prevent soil erosion.  The island is forested with pine trees.
  The island is inhabited and is only accessible by boat.
