Narrow plains are common along the coast and often extend for short distances along river valleys. The largest being at Layabaung in the north east. Coral reefs and small islands occur off the irregular northern coast, while to the south the Indian ocean has formed a series of low sandy beaches. Principal vegetation: Mangrove.
