 Geographical location of Lipar wetland

Lipar is located in a gorge and a rocky valley overlooking the Chabahar Mountains. This pink wetland is located on the road and along the beautiful coast of Chabahar to the Govatrr of the Oman Sea, which today has become a suitable place for sightseeing and photography. In this wetland, the water of the Oman Sea has become static and has created a suitable habitat for the animals and plants of the region. The pink water of Lipar Wetland is due to the presence of many plant plankton and its rich organic and mineral matter, which enter through the rivers and estuaries connected to this bay. Oak, nettle, teak and teak shrubs are the main vegetation of the region and their growth around Lipar Wetland creates beautiful landscapes that have made this wetland one of the most amazing wetlands in Iran.

The presence of abundant plant plankton in the area (90% of plant plankton is found in this area), the abundance of organic matter and minerals that are directed to this area through rivers and estuaries connected to the bay, will greatly increase biological production in some seasons. These factors, together with the sea currents caused by monsoon storms, which are unique features of the Oman Sea ocean basin, cause an excessive increase in the number of plant plankton in the months after the monsoon season (from mid-June to mid-September).
