Port Dickson District, Coastal district in Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia

Port Dickson District spans 572 square kilometers along the Strait of Malacca, encompassing five administrative regions and twelve distinct townships within its boundaries.

The district evolved from a small cape called Tanjung into a significant port area after British commissioner Sir John Frederick Dickson recognized its strategic potential in 1889.

The district incorporates diverse communities across its townships, including Port Dickson Town, Lukut, and Linggi, each contributing to the regional heritage of Negeri Sembilan.

The Port Dickson Municipal Council manages local governance across the district, serving a population of 128,657 residents through coordinated administrative services.

The district contains Tanjung Tuan, a geographical anomaly as an exclave of Malacca state positioned within Port Dickson's southwestern territorial boundaries.
