About

Gwadar Beach lies in Pakistan's coastal city of Gwadar and can be easily accessed by road within the district of Balochistan, overlooking the Arabian Sea with its pristine waters and scenic vistas that change as per seasons from October to March. The beach is situated near a natural peninsula forming two bays - West Bay where sandy shores are common for leisurely strolls or picnics; deeper East Bay lies beyond the headland, offering opportunities to observe local marine life and coastal sceneries in their truest form.
