The Eastern bay of Gwadar has the deep sea port and is reserved for shipping and port operations. It is a deep sea port which is sheltered by the natural shape of the geology - a fairly unique natural formation!

Motorcycles, boats, nets, fishing, swimming and beautiful waters. It seemed unreal and just so wonderful. At Western beach.

There were so many boats under contruction here!

The road seems to drop off a cliff near the beach

The road on the Anvil is almost a 100 feet above the water

The hotel rooms at PC Gwadar - very spacious, clean and nicely airconditioned!

Wow....Gwadar has such an amazing feeling to it. Almost feels like the Baleric Islands or any other resorts in the Iberian Peninsula or the Greek archipelago. I hope that they don't ruin the views through over development.

heard somewhere that they made up about 50% of Gwadar's population.

Im sure they cant muk it up to much. The coast around Gawadar is pretty long... I doubt they could develop to the extent where there are very few accesible beaches...
Atleast not for now.
