Parit Bakar Laut is 1 km towards the coastline from Parit Bakar town centre. Parit Bakar is located about 8km away from Muar. Parit Bakar can be reached by travelling along Jalan Temenggung Ahmad (Temenggung Ahmad Road) for 10 minutes from Muar.

At the junction of Jalan Abdul Rahman and Jalan Parit Bakar, is the new Parit Bakar Mosque, which was rebuilt in 2004. Its roof, which resembles a pagoda instead of the usual dome, is similar to the historic Tranquerah Mosque in Malacca. Taman Bunga Raya is a newer housing development established near Parit Bakar.
