Kharg Island is located in Iran, in the northern Persian Gulf, 34 miles (55 km) northwest of the port of Bushehr. It is one of relatively few islands in the Persian Gulf with natural freshwater resources, making it suitable for settlement by small populations. It has long been used as a trading post and in recent times for oil exports.
