Hengam Beach

Hengam Beach is one of the most beautiful and unspoiled beaches in Hormozgan Province. It is located on Hengam Island, near Qeshm. With its soft white sand and the clear, turquoise waters of the Persian Gulf, the beach offers travellers a dreamlike view and is considered one of the most popular destinations for nature and beach tourism in southern Iran.

Because it is far from big cities and sparsely populated, Hengam Beach has a calm atmosphere that is ideal for relaxing, photography and watching the sunset. The area is also home to dolphins and some rare marine species, and visitors can watch dolphins during boat trips. Along the shores of Hengam you can see a rich variety of marine life, including corals, colourful fish, marine reserves and shallow reefs. This is especially true in areas where glass-bottom boats take tourists down into the water and allow them to observe marine life directly. Basic facilities are available beside the beach, including gazebos, resting areas, boat rides and walking trails. The unspoiled nature, calm waters and fresh air of Hengam Beach have made it an attractive destination for nature lovers and fans of water-based recreation.

To reach the beach, you first need to get to Hengam Island by boat or vessel from Qeshm. Then, following the signs for the old village of Hengam, you will have a short route to the beach. The best time to visit is from autumn to winter, when the weather is milder and there are fewer tourists. Responsible ecotourism at this beach means walking on designated paths, not leaving litter, respecting marine life and avoiding damage to the corals, so that this pristine environment is preserved for future generations.
