Naz Island, One of the Seven Wonders of Iran’s Qeshm Island

Naz Island is the only place tourists can wade on foot or by car one km into the Persian Gulf waters.

Some 22 km from Qeshm, you reach Naz Island; the only place you can wade on foot or by car one km into the Persian Gulf waters. It is one of the key tourist attractions of Qeshm Island.

Naz Island is around three hectares in area. It does not have a sandy beach, but is surrounded by rocky walls which are five to ten meters in height. The island’s surface is completely flat. When the tide ebbs or the water flows outward from the land, a strip of land temporarily connects the island to Qeshm’s coasts.

This island is one of the areas favored by tourists visiting Qeshm Island.
