Beaches Karachi's golden uncrowded beaches stretch for miles. The more accessible of them Sandspit, Hawks Bay and Paradise Point are within a radius of 10 to 20 km from the city, and about 30 minutes' drive away. Visitors may enjoy the cool sea breeze while strolling on the sands or take a ride on gaily decorated camel. Beach huts are dotted along the shore some available for hire. For reasons of safety, care must be taken to swim only in the prescribed areas as there is always a strong undercurrent. In May and June watch out for jelly fish. On moon nights, during the months of September and October, giant green turtles lumber ashore to lay eggs in the sand. The turtles are under the protection of the Wild Life Management Board.
