The Sea of Fallen Stars supplement that came out about 1997-1998 was really good. I don't necessarily have a favorite spot or any particular trivia of the area, but that book detailed the undersea of Seros beneath the Sea of Fallen Stars, which described the societies and cultures below. A few shipwrecks were talked about too, that two paragraphs worth of material were enough to base a whole campaign on. ICR if it was that book that said the elves destroyed one of the cities of the Sea of Fallen Stars using a 10th level circle spell to create a tsunami and wash it away. Don't quote me on the specifics though, but it was something to the effect and think it was in that book. After 25 years a lot of those FR books blur together for me at times. IMO some of those FR supplements by Steven Schend and Dale Donovan from 96-99 were really well written, some of the best of the line up until then, and well worth the read.

EDIT: Found it, I was kind of wrong about the tsunami, the footnotes say it was in A Grand History of the Realms from 2007, but I never read that book fully, and certainly remember reading it long before then. Read the very first paragraph of the below link.

"The Sea of Fallen Stars had coastlines in many different lands, including Aglarond, Altumbel, Cormyr, Chessenta, Chondath, the Dalelands, Impiltur, Sembia, Mulhorand, Priador, Thay, Thesk, Turmish, Unther, and the Vast."

This makes it a sort of Mediterranean with lots of distinct cultures able to interact and mix. Greekish Chessentans, Egyptianish Mulhorandi and Stygian Thayans, Mesopotamian Untherites, can mix with European monarchial Cormyrians or independent Dalelanders. And with Pirate Isles in middle. Very Conanesque.
