Bandare Lengeh

Overview

Bandar-e Lengeh is useful as a transit point for travellers aiming for the nearby pictur-esque port town of Kong, or waiting for a ferry to Kish or Dubai.
Assuming that the seas aren’t too rough, it’s usually much quicker to take a ferry (one way IR230,000, about 1½ hours) from Bandar-e Charak (89km west of Bandar-e Lengeh) to Kish. To do this, take a savari from Lengeh to Charak, where it will drop you at the ferry terminal. There are four to five ferry services per day between Bandar-e Charak and Kish.

Places to Go:

Sayeh Khosh Kaluts:

It is not clear whether it should be called a desert or a coast! The beautiful place in Bandar-e Lengeh is close to the sea despite its appearance which is like a big and deep desert. The ancient and historical monuments of the district are a lot like other ports and old cities of Iran.
44 kilometers from Khamir and 55 kilometers from Bandar-e Lengeh that owes its name to a nearby village, there are beautifully carved kaluts that have been formed by the wind blowing and water have given it a strange shape that can rarely be found anywhere in the world.
This desert also has a spring with the same name that is seething in the mountain skirt and between marl lime stones.

Mehran River:

This river takes its source in the southern portion of the Haft Chen Mountains, 15 km. north east of Bandar Alaviyeh. The river flows from west to east, and to the east of Bandar Lengeh seeps into the sands. The same re-appears and in the vicinity of Khuran flows into the Persian Gulf.
