Hormuz Island is an Iranian island in the Persian Gulf. Located in the Strait of Hormuz, 5 miles off the Iranian coast, the island is part of Hormozgān Province.

 

Based on the studies geology, Hormuz island was born in 600 million years ago and also about 50 thousand years ago coming out of the water.

 

Hormuz Island has an area of 42 km2 (16 sq mi). It is covered by sedimentary rock and layers of volcanic material on its surface. The highest point of the island is about 186 metres (610 ft) above sea level. Due to a lack of precipitation, the soil and water are salty. Specialists have helped cultivar white mangrove or Hara trees to grow in the climate. There are many virgin beaches that go all around the island.

 

Every moment travel on Hormuz island is like traveling on another planet and every 5 minutes hiking on the island, scenery and colors quickly changes! The island of Hormuz is where the warm waters of the Persian Gulf meet the red and silver sand of the island and create a marvelous combination of colors. Therefore Hormuz an island that can be called the "Rainbow Island".

About ..Valley of the Statues:

This stunningly beautiful natural site is called "Valley of the Statues" because here tall rocks have been sculpted into strange shapes by the elements. With a bit of imagination you can see a dragon, birds and mythical creatures. The site is located on a bluff that affords fantastic vistas of the coastline.

 

>>> COOPER

We've always defined ourselves by the ability to overcome the impossible. And we count these moments. These moments when we dare to aim higher, to break barriers, to reach for the stars, to make the unknown known. We count these moments as our proudest achievements. But we lost all that. Or perhaps we've just forgotten that we are still pioneers. And we've barely begun. And that our greatest accomplishments cannot be behind us, because our destiny lies above us.
