Bushehr
Bushehr Barry Kent

Bushehr is a city in the Gulf Region of Iran.

Understand

Bushehr was the main trade center of Iran in the past centuries. The city structures are traditional in style, modest in proportion and cost. Due to its lack of rail connection to the interior of the country and its shallow anchorage, it has lost its position as the primary port of Iran.

Get in

There are international flights to Kuwait and Dubai and domestic flights to Tehran, Isfahan and Mashad.

By train

  • A railroad has just been started from Shiraz. It will be finished in a few years.

By bus

There are buses to Shiraz, Bandar Abbas, Ahvaz, Tehran and other major cities of Iran.

By boat

Apart from enterprising fishermen, there are no domestic boat services from Bushehr. However, the Valfajre-8 shipping company operates (in theory, though not always in practice) to Qatar (one way US$50, Mondays), Bahrain (US$45, seven to eight hours, Mondays) and Kuwait (US$70, seven to eight hours, Wednesdays).
