Keamari (locality)

[1] Keamari was originally an independent settlement built on a sandy ridge on the eastern side of Karachi Harbour.

Kemari's anchorage during the early colonial era was too shallow for large ships, and so those were instead forced to dock at Manora.

The British further built a spur of the Sindh Railway to Kemari, which did not follow Napier Mole, but instead along the east part of Chinna Creek.

[3] During the colonial era, Kemari had a naval yard, a government commissariat, post office, customs and railway houses.

Baba Bhit is composed of three small islands in Karachi harbour that are home to about 5% of the town's population.
