Dhari Island is an uninhabited island of Pakistan situated within Karachi's Korangi Creek.[1]

Location

[edit]

The island lies northeast of the peninsular area known as Defence, along Sindh's Arabian Sea coastline, and approximately 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) southeast of the Ibrahim Hyderi fishing village.[2] It represents the westernmost extent of the Indus River Delta archipelago, with the adjacent Khiprianwala situated further to the south.

The island is located in a tidal zone, experiencing a fluctuation of nearly three meters between high and low tide.[3]
