Where are the deepest waters of the Persian Gulf found?

The Persian Gulf is characterized by an asymmetrical profile, with its deepest waters found along the Iranian coast. While the gulf is generally shallow—rarely exceeding 300 feet (90 meters)—depths greater than 360 feet (110 meters) occur at its entrance and in isolated localities within its southeastern region. In contrast, the area along the Arabian Peninsula is broad and shallow, typically measuring less than 120 feet (35 meters) in depth.1
