Etymology
The Malay word kuala refers to the mouth of a river, therefore its name would translate to the mouth of the Tutong River.

Geography
Kuala Tutong is surrounded by two bodies of water both in the North, the South China Sea and South, the Tutong River. It has coconut palms, a spit and a 5 km beach named Seri Kenangan Beach. At Kuala Tutong and Kuala Belait, there are a few small mangrove areas, but they are only adequate for storing local supplies.

History
Since the entire route now falls within its operational region, the British Malayan Petroleum Company, assumed responsibility for the upkeep of the bridges and approaches along the beach road from Kuala Tutong to Kuala Belait in 1931. During the Second World War, the area was operated by the Australian Army's 20th Brigade and 2/8th Field Regiment in their fight against the Japanese occupation of Brunei in August 1945. Additionally, a Japanese cemetery was also present. To sustain through traffic between Brunei and Kuala Belait, a pontoon car-ferry was created at Kuala Tutong. In order to cross the river, the 2/3rd Field Regiment assisted in their operations by managing a ferry raft. The Kuala Tutong Ferry service was discontinued in 1953 when a new bridge was built over the Tutong River near Tutong and another bridge was built over the Telamba River near Telisai. The design and building of these bridges have been put out to bid.
