Hendurabi (Persian: هندورابی)[a] is an Iranian island in the Persian Gulf. Its name is derived from the Persian word andar-abi (اندرآبی), meaning "inside the waters," i.e, an island. This is the native Persian word for the Arabic-derived term jazira, meaning an "island." It is located in Hormozgan Province, to the west of Kish Island and due south of Bastak. Administratively, the island is in Kish Rural District, Kish District, Bandar Lengeh County, Hormozgan Province, Iran.[5]
