Each of these forms is specific to living ecosystems. But identification, management, integrated programming is necessary for each of them. A job opportunity arises from every ten tourists entering the host country. The location of Minab plain at the mouth of the river has led to the formation of interesting geotourism forms and<br /> the purpose of this study is to investigate the tourism capabilities of landforms in this region. In this research, using and comparing two models of Perira and Reynard,12 geomorphosites including: (estuary, gulfs, mangrove forests, tidal canals, sand dunes, sand dunes, barns, meanders , etc), has been evaluated. Pereira's model indicates that the scientific grade and the complementary grade are the highest score related to estuaries and the lowest score is related to meanders. However, the values of avicennia marina in the scientific grade and estuaries in the complementarity criterion gained highest value. In general, the results showed that both estuaries and avicennia marina have gained more score among others. The southern coastal areas of Iran is one of the areas with many attractions.
