Pazm Bay

Pazm Bay is one of the beautiful beaches of southern Iran and one of the attractions of Sistan and Baluchestan Province. It lies on the edge of the Sea of Oman in Konarak County. Among the local people, Pazm Bay is also known as Tiab Bay, Pazm Fishing Port and Pazm Tiab. The port forms a peninsula, and its headland resembles a whale. Pazm is one of the important ports of southern Iran. Fishing is the main occupation of the people here, and the bay supplies a large share of the country's protein.

The rocky shore of Pazm Port has tall cliffs and rocks covered with shells. The sea caves and coastal caves of Pazm are among the bay's unique sights; erosion from the pounding of the waves has carved the rocks into figures that look like little stone people. The most famous of these is a very beautiful hollow called the Ocean's Eye, which looks like a blue eye. It is a beautiful cave that becomes visible when the water level drops. Another interesting phenomenon on the shore of Pazm is the phytoplankton, or bioluminescent sea sparkle, which at night glows along the coast like blue lamps and gives Pazm beach an extraordinary beauty.

If you plan to visit Pazm Tiab beach, the best time to go is from early Aban to mid-Farvardin (late October to early April). On some summer days this beautiful bay has cool breezes and splashing waves, and in winter, unlike the bitter cold in other parts of the country, it has mild, spring-like weather.
