Bandar Abbas, capital of Hormozgan, is Iran's main southern port and the gateway to the Persian Gulf islands of Hormuz, Qeshm and Hengam. Once the Portuguese-influenced 'Gombroon', it is a hot, humid, multicultural Bandari city of colourful embroidered dress, spicy seafood, a lively fish market and bazaar, a Hindu temple from the British East India Company era, and the therapeutic Geno hot spring in the mountains behind. Most travellers use it as the launch pad for the islands.
