Pakistan’s tourism driven and coastal real estate sector gained strong momentum in 2025, supported by domestic travel demand and increasing global investor interest.

Key destinations such as Gwadar, Karachi’s coastline and the northern mountain regions are rapidly emerging as real estate hotspots. Gwadar is undergoing a major transformation under CPEC, with the Gwadar Development Authority establishing a 2,585-acre Central Business District with valuable coastline frontage.

Karachi’s luxury waterfront is also being reshaped by large-scale developments such as Emaar Oceanfront, a 75-acre seafront community offering premium apartments and penthouses, and Goldcrest Bays Sands, which provides sea-facing homes with private beaches and resort-style amenities.

In Gwadar, Oshun by Eiwan is among the first beachfront resort-style residential developments, combining coastal and mountain views to capture rising CPEC-driven demand. 

Government-backed planning, sustainable infrastructure and smart-city frameworks are adding further confidence to the market. International capital is flowing in, highlighted by Gentry Beach, a US-based investor announcing a multi-billion-dollar plan for high-rise and mixed-use luxury projects in Karachi and Islamabad. 

Premium coastal developments prioritise master planning, eco-friendly design and lifestyle offerings, including signature towers and waterfront promenades.

For investors, these projects offer dual income potential, combining short-term rental opportunities with long-term capital appreciation. With globally recognised brands like Emaar involved and smart-city infrastructure underway, Pakistan’s coastal and tourism-anchored real estate sector is positioned for strong premium returns as the country opens its coastline to more institutional and overseas capital.
