Iran
Gilan Province

Gilan Province sits along Iran's Caspian coast and offers a range of freshwater and brackish water activities, with modest coastal diving opportunities limited by regional infrastructure. The province's dive centers are few and access to diving sites is typically via local operators based near coastal towns. Expect cool, turbid conditions and limited visibility compared with major regional dive destinations; marine life is diverse but encounters are less predictable than in more established dive regions. This region suits divers seeking offbeat, less crowded sites and a gentle introduction to Caspian coast diving, rather than a high-profile dive itinerary.
