The Manjung district covers multiple townships including Seri Manjung, Lumut, Sitiawan, Ayer Tawar, Pantai Remis, Changkat Keruning, and Beruas in Perak state.

The district, previously named Dindings, became part of the British Straits Settlements through the Pangkor Treaty of 1874, maintaining this status until Malaysian independence.
