Clifton Beach, Karachi, Seaside resort in Clifton district, Karachi, Pakistan.
Clifton Beach is a seaside destination along the Arabian Sea in Karachi with a wide sandy shore and shallow waters. The shoreline extends for several kilometers and provides different access points along its length.
The beach was originally an isolated coastal stretch during the early British colonial period and gradually developed into a popular retreat. After Pakistan's independence, it became increasingly accessible to the general public and transformed into a public recreation area.
The beach holds regular Pakistan Air Force shows during national celebrations, displaying aircraft performances for gathered crowds.
Visit in early morning or late afternoon when temperatures are more comfortable for walking and swimming. Areas near main access roads have better facilities and are easier to navigate than quieter stretches.
The beach is known for camel rides and dune buggy experiences that visitors can arrange at different spots along the shore. These activities offer a different way to experience the coastal landscape beyond typical swimming or walking.
