Manora, a small peninsula located 2.5 kilometres south of Karachi, is an ideal getaway for those who need a break from the big city. Cool breezes, clean beaches, famed fried fish, a mysterious mandir, and shops selling seaside trinkets make for a lovely ‘staycation.’ But much of Manora remains in urgent need of development.
