Beauty Of Baluchistan Sapat Beach

One of the greatest gifts that any government can give its people is designating and preserving its national parks. Urban centres in Pakistan are devoid of a healthy balance between nature and concrete.
Pakistan has 1,046km of coastline — a major part of which is in Balochistan. Most of our beaches remain isolated and unexplored. Perhaps that is a good thing, as it has given the local wildlife freedom to live naturally. It would have been possible on the beaches in Karachi, had there been no human interference.

While summer brings strong winds, high tides and rough seas, in winter the Arabian Sea along the coast of Pakistan is calm — sometimes enough to give it a stunning tropical turquoise colour. Far away from concrete human settlement and light pollution, the beach is an entirely different entity at night.
