Since, Karachi is a coastal area and is situated near Arabian Sea, the ground water found in most of the areas is extremely salty and is not at all suitable for drinking purposes. Clifton, Defense, Kharadar, Kimari are the sea touching areas and the ground water can be found at the depth of only 20-28 feet depth from ground level. Drinking water is supplied to population of Karachi through HUB Dam situated on the boundary of Sindh and Baluchistan province.
