Shams Pir Island is an island village close to Sandspit Beach and Mauripur. Located in Kemari Town, it is an ancient village established before the establishment of Karachi as we now know it. Shams Pir Island is named after Hazrat Shams Pir, whose shrine is located on the island. A water filtration plant, financed by the Government of Japan, was installed at Shams Pir Island in September 2008. Shams Pir Island provides you a perfect opportunity to closely study village life, but the fact that it is an island village differentiates it from other towns. The mesmerizing view of the Arabian Sea adds the X factor, and you feel as if you are in another world. With its scenic views, Shams Pir Island is the ideal place for a family outing and picnic. You can enjoy some quality time away from the hustle and bustle of the city in the company of Nature and simple villagers.
