West Seram Regency is a regency of Maluku, Indonesia. It is mainly located on Seram, but includes various islands lying to the west of Seram - the largest being Manipa, Kelang and Buano, as well as the smaller islets of Babi, Pua, Masowoi, and Marsegu. It covers a land area of 5,014.24 km2, and had a population of 164,654 at the 2010 Census and 212,393 at the 2020 Census; the official estimate as at mid 2025 was 218,637 (comprising 109,683 males and 108,954 females). The principal town lies at Piru, a port at the northern coast of Latira Bay (Teluk Latira) which is a northwards extension of Piru Bay (Teluk Piru) and almost separates the Huamual Peninsula from the rest of Seram Island. The western sector of the Regency (the Huamual Peninsula and the islands off the west coast) occupies just under 25% of the land area, but held over 42.2% of the Regency's population in 2025.
