  • MARITIME TOURISM: GLOBAL SUCCESS STORIES and the CASE of PAKISTAN Naureen Fatima1 Muhammad Akhtar2
    MARITIME TOURISM: GLOBAL SUCCESS STORIES AND THE CASE OF PAKISTAN Naureen Fatima1 Muhammad Akhtar2 Abstract The coastal / maritime tourism is an important segment in a multi-trillion dollars and multivariate global tourism industry. It offers one of the new avenues and fastest growing areas for significant role in global economies. Various countries such as Maldives, Indian State of Kerala, Singapore and Thailand etc. have focused on maritime tourism with good governance practices evolved over period of time to earn substantial revenues from it. Pakistan has also immense maritime tourism potential with diversified natural, religious, and cultural tourism resources. But Pakistan’s maritime tourism is considered very weak due to various issues. With qualitative research, this paper attempts to explore and suggest solutions for the development of maritime tourism sector of Pakistan by analysing the tourism governance of global success stories and evaluating the nationwide potential and challenges. Arguments are developed that the factors behind the success stories of Maldives & Kerala state in India can act as guidance for taking initiatives on the proposed potential sites in order to uplift the maritime tourism sector in Pakistan. It is anticipated that the effective implementation of this paper’s recommendations would be instrumental in gearing up Pakistan’s Maritime economy. Keywords: Coastal, Maritime, Maldives, Kerala, Tourism governance, Success stories, Potential sites Naureen Fatima is a Researcher- Maritime Tourism & Coastal Livelihoods at National Institute of Maritime Affairs (NIMA) reachable at [email protected] Muhammad Akhtar is Deputy Director at NCMPR Karachi reachable at [email protected] 2 Naureen Fatima, Muhammad Akhtar Introduction In this modern era, tourism has now grown to a multi-trillion dollars and multivariate trade activity across the globe.

    Scientific Information to Describe Areas Meeting Scientific Criteria for Ecologically or Biologically Significant Marine Areas Title/Name of the area: Churna-Kaio Islands Complex, Balochistan Coast, Pakistan Presented by (Muhammad Moazzam Khan, Ex-Director General, Marine Fisheries Department, Government of Pakistan, Karachi, Pakistan, Phone, +92-21-34544791, Email: [email protected]) Abstract (in less than 150 words) Churna –Kaio Islands Complex which is located west of Karachi has an area of about 400 sq. km. It consists of a Churna island which is a medium sized island facing the Hub River Delta whereas a small islet Kaio Island located near town of Gaddani. The area is known for high biodiversity because of a variety of habitats. It has diversified coral assemblage around Churna and Kaio Islands whereas at the mouth of the River hub there are rich mudflats and oyster reefs. Churna–Kaio Islands Complex is known to be important basking and feeding area for marine megafauna including baleen whales, whale shark, mobulids and sunfishes. Because of power plants and a substantially large ship breaking industry, the ecology of the area is seriously being affected. Considering high biodiversity and the threats it is facing the area requires international recognition as an EBSA. Introduction (To include: feature type(s) presented, geographic description, depth range, oceanography, general information data reported, availability of models) Churna –Kaio Islands Complex is located west of Karachi has an area of about 400 sq. km. The major important features of the area are two islands (Churna Island and Kaio Island), delta of the River Hub, sandy shores stretching between Khalifa Point and Gaddani and rocky stretches south of Hub River mouth and intermittent rocky outcrops.

  • Distribution and Abundance of Hawksbill Turtles (Eretochelys Imbricata Rüppell, 1835) from Pakistan
    INT. J. BIOL. BIOTECH., 16 (4): 983-990, 2019. DISTRIBUTION AND ABUNDANCE OF HAWKSBILL TURTLES (ERETOCHELYS IMBRICATA RÜPPELL, 1835) FROM PAKISTAN Muhammad Moazzam and Rab Nawaz WWF-Pakistan, 46-K, Block 6, PECHS, Karachi 75400, Pakistan ([email protected]) ABSTRACT Eretochelys imbricate (Rüppell, 1835) commonly known as hawksbill turtle was previously reported from Pakistan only once when a small hawksbill turtle shell was seen in a shop in Karachi in 1960’s. Present paper reports confirmed occurrence of 9 specimens of hawksbill turtles that were mainly entangled in fishing gears. All these specimens which were enmeshed in the fishing gear were safely released except one which died during disentanglement process. The records of hawksbill turtles from Pakistan coast indicated that this species is widely distributed along the coastal and offshore waters of Pakistan but are of rare occurrence in Pakistan. No marked seasonality of occurrence was noticed except that more entanglements were made during post southwest monsoon period (winter months). Keywords: Hawksbill turtles, Eretochelys imbricata (Rüppell, 1835), Pakistan, entanglement, safe release, gillnets. INTRODUCTION The hawksbill turtle has a circumglobal distribution throughout tropical and, to a lesser extent, subtropical waters of the Atlantic Ocean, Indian Ocean, and Pacific Ocean (Mortimer and Donnelly, 2008). It is a migratory species having a complex movement through geographically disparate habitats during their lifetimes and found in about 108 countries but its nesting occurs in at least 70 countries (Mortimer and Donnelly, 2008). It is the rarest sea turtle species found in Pakistan. Minton (1966) pointed out that hawksbill turtles evidently researches Pakistan coast only as a wanderer, however, there is no evidence of its breeding or nesting here.

The sea off the island’s coast are known pristine and comprise of pelagic and demersal species. Coral reefs are also found around the Island. The area is also rich in supporting life for cetaceans. Introduction (To include: feature type(s) presented, geographic description, depth range, oceanography, general information data reported, availability of models) Astola, also know as Haptalar is an island (25° 6’ - 25° 7’ N; 63° 52 - 63° 54’ E) lying about 16 miles off the coast and about 26 miles from Pasni.
