Karachi Harbour is a narrow bay and river estuary located west of the Indus River Delta in Karachi, Pakistan. The harbour lies between the Lyari River delta and Chinna Creek to the north, and the Arabian Sea to the south. Since 1886,[1] sections of the harbour have been improved to form the Port of Karachi - Pakistan's busiest seaport.[2]
