Bandar-e Deyr

Bandar Deyr is a port on the northern shore of the Persian Gulf, south of Bushehr. Its low coast faces shallow waters rich in fish and prawns, while dry hills rise inland. Fishing and maritime commerce have linked the settlement to other harbours around the Gulf. Boats leave from the shore for the fishing grounds, and coastal traffic follows a long chain of ports between the mouths of Mesopotamian rivers and the Strait of Hormuz.
