Best Answer

Iraq has no cities on the its Persian Gulf coast. (The closest city is Umm Qasr, but it is technically on the Khawr Abd Allah Estuary, not the Gulf.) Umm Qasr functions as Iraq's deep-water port. Basra, a much larger city, sits upriver in the Shatt Al-Arab (at a point south of the Tigris-Euphrates merger) and is Iraq's largest port, but it is a shallow-water port.
