Maritime Southeast Asia is the maritime region of Southeast Asia as opposed to mainland Southeast Asia and comprises what is now Malaysia, Brunei, Philippines, Singapore, Indonesia, and Timor Leste. Maritime Southeast Asia is sometimes also referred to as "island Southeast Asia" or "insular Southeast Asia". The 16th-century term East Indies, and the later 19th-century term Malay Archipelago refers to a largely similar area.

海洋东南亚是东南亚的海洋地区,而不是大陆东南亚,包括现在的马来西亚,文莱,菲律宾,新加坡,印度尼西亚和东帝汶。海洋东南亚有时也被称为“岛屿东南亚”。 16世纪的东印度群岛和19世纪后期的马来群岛指的是大致相似的区域。
