Therefore, in this research, the Belagandari beliefs related to the maritime tradition were first collected in the field and in the form of interviews with women and men, and further, they were analyzed by relying on library studies and books on the mythology of nations. The results of the research also indicated that the belief in wandering among the residents of Bandar Kong was observed in both direct and mediated ways (walking through animals and objects).Beliefs of Balagandari that were indirect include: throwing dates in the sea and saying the call to prayer and reciting the Qur'an during a storm. Intermediate beliefs also include: sacrificing cows, placing chickens with women in the boat, placing Kush shoes in the direction of the wind, and applying henna and animal excrement on the doors of houses.
