Kish Island; A Tourist Destination for All Seasons

Iran’s Kish Island in the Persian Gulf, with its white sand beaches and coral reefs, has long been a major destination for Iranian and foreign tourists.

The wide, palm tree-lined boulevards that circle the island of 100 square kilometres attract any tourist, especially during the autumn season when the weather is very pleasant. If you are energetic, walking is one of the best activities on this island, which is often called the Pearl of the Persian Gulf.

The Kish coastline is one of the least dangerous coasts in the world. Kish has gorgeous white sandy beaches for relaxing walks. The number of Kish visitors has leapt from 2.2 million a year in 2009 to 5.2 million in 2015, and an even bigger increase is expected.

Following you can see the Tasnim News Agency’s photos of the lovely island:
