地理
編輯達維爾灣大部分地方係紅樹林沼澤[1]。海灣入面有好多島嶼，最大嘅島係Timbun Mata Island，佢喺海岸南面附近。
歷史
編輯達維爾灣周邊地區已經有超過20,000年歷史[2]。大陸同島上西嘅石灰岩洞穴畀人用嚟做史前墓葬[2]。
達維爾灣直到19世紀尾一直係海盜嘅傳統出沒地方[3]。當中，最出名嘅海盜叫Datu Kudunding[4]。英國人喺拿篤區經營達維爾灣煙草種植園有限公司 (Darvel Bay Tobacco Plantations Ltd)，呢間公司喺 H. M. Lomas 嘅紀錄片「Urban Bioscope Expedition through Borneo」入面得到永生[5]。
