Hendurabi or Hendorabi (Persian: هندورابی) is an Iranian island in the Persian Gulf. Its name is derived from the Persian word اندرآبی Andar-abi meaning "Inside the waters", i.e, an island.

Administratively, the island is in Kish Rural District, Kish District, Bandar Lengeh County, Hormozgan Province, Iran.[5]

At the 2006 National Census, the population of Hendurabi was 79 people in 9 households.[6] The following census in 2011 counted 86 people in 21 households.[7] The latest census in 2016 showed a population of 191 people in 31 households. It was the only village in its rural district.[2]
