Population, 139,900. It is at 14.09°N ninety eight.20°E. Dawei is a port at the top of the Dawei River estuary, 30 km. From the Andaman Sea. As a result, the city is prone to flooding in the course of the monsoon season. "Dawei" is likewise the name of one among Myanmar's 135 ethnic minorities. The place around the Dawei River estuary has been inhabited for hundreds of years via Dawei, Mon, Kayin, and Thai mariners.

From the 11th to thirteenth centuries, Dawei changed into part of the Pagan Empire. From 1287 to 1564, Dawei became a part of the Sukhothai Kingdom and its successor Ayutthaya Kingdom. From 1564 to 1594, Dawei became part of the Toungoo Kingdom of Burma. Siam briefly regained the metropolis between 1594 and 1614. From 1614 to the 1740s, Dawei was the southernmost town below Burmese authority, and became defended by way of a Burmese garrison.
