Kharg Island is roughly 8 km long and 4 km wide, with a dry, rocky landscape typical of the Persian Gulf region. The island experiences a hot desert climate, with extremely high summer temperatures and mild winters. Its location in the northern Persian Gulf places it close to major shipping routes, making it ideal for oil transportation. The surrounding waters are relatively shallow but navigable for large tankers.
