The beaches in Pakistan are not like in other countries. You can swim but i don't think you'll enjoy it as it is not very clean and not a single Pakistan know how to swim. I am in Karachi now and will leave for Islamabad tomorrow in the morning. 

Here are some pictures i took in Karachi, mohenjo daro and Harappa durring this trip http://www.flickr.com/photos/adventurelovers

i am guessing you are refering to the dumpster called SEA VIEW.....

this is from Charna Island just a few hours from the city....

and i assure you there are many Pakistanis who know swimming very well...last saturday morning we went swimming and i met a guy who was training his two kids to swim not more than 5 6 years old.

Hope you enjoyed your trip other than the swimming and beach issues...! :)

cheers
Fahim
