The Genaveh commercial port was placed on the agenda of the Iranian PMO (ports and maritime organization) to consider economic, commercial and residential development in Bushehr province and specifically in Genaveh city. In order to increase the water capacity of the port, it is necessary to build a new harbour basin for exploitation and commercial purposes at a depth of 5 to 6 meters by extending the existing jetties arms in front of the port. This research aims to investigate the harbour basin’s tranquillity for providing vessels with safe berthing. For this purpose, three modules, namely the flow model (FM), spectral wave (SW) and Boussinesq waves model (BW) from the MIKE 21 software package, were utilized. According to the monitoring data, which is provided by the Iranian PMO, the harbour basin’s tranquillity based on the prevailing wave directions was investigated. Based on the diffraction graph in the harbour basin, the results showed that, according to the percentage of permissible diffraction recommended by different valid regulations, there is a need to modify the geometry of the breakwater arms to increase the harbour basin’s tranquillity at the port in the development plan.
