The short answer
Emaar Oceanfront is Emaar Pakistan’s 75-acre waterfront community in DHA Phase 8, Karachi, formerly sold as Crescent Bay and already home to more than 1,000 families. Coral Towers are complete, Pearl and Reef Towers are handing over, Panorama and The Views are due for occupancy in 2026, and Park Edge is scheduled for completion on 30 May 2028.
Where is Emaar Oceanfront?
Emaar Oceanfront is in DHA Phase 8, Karachi, on the coastal belt it shares with HMR Waterfront. Emaar’s community is built around two crescent-shaped man-made bays, with a promenade, parks and plazas, sports and jogging tracks, and access to the community beaches.
The project was first sold as Crescent Bay, and Emaar’s older brochures still use that name, giving the whole site as 108 acres. Emaar’s current community page gives Emaar Oceanfront as 75 acres, which matches the split HMR’s sales team describes: 75 acres for Emaar and 33.12 acres for HMR Waterfront on the same 108-acre belt.
Emaar Oceanfront towers and their status
Emaar lists seven residential projects at Emaar Oceanfront. The first towers are complete and occupied, two more groups are handing over, and three projects are due between 2026 and 2028.
| Project | Status (Emaar) | Apartments | From (sq ft) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coral Towers I and II | Completed in 2019, sold out | 1 to 4 bed, penthouses | 1,071 |
| Pearl Towers | Sold out; Towers 1 and 2 handing over | 1 to 5 bed, penthouses | Not published |
| Reef Towers | Sold out; Towers 1 and 2 handing over | 1 to 5 bed, penthouses | Not published |
| Panorama | Limited stock, occupancy 2026 | 1 to 4 bed, sea-facing | 1,547 |
| The Views | Occupancy 2026 | 1 to 4 bed, sea-facing | 1,320 |
| Park Edge | Completion 30 May 2028 | 1 to 4 bed, penthouses | 1,400 |
| Park Grand | 158 residences | 2 to 5 bed | 2,575 |
Emaar does not publish floor counts for its Karachi towers, and the figures quoted on listing sites disagree. Panorama, for example, is quoted at 45, 46 or 50 storeys depending on the source, while Emaar describes it only as on track to be Pakistan’s tallest waterfront tower.
Emaar Oceanfront prices
Emaar shows a starting price on each project page. These figures come from pages Emaar last updated between September 2025 and April 2026, so treat them as a guide and confirm the current figure with Emaar’s sales team or an adviser.
| Project | From (PKR) | Page last updated |
|---|---|---|
| Park Edge | 5.9 crore | September 2025 |
| The Views | 7.3 crore | September 2025 |
| Panorama | 7.9 crore | September 2025 |

Park Edge is sold on a three-year payment plan. Coral, Pearl and Reef are sold out, so buying there means a resale from an existing owner.
The projects in more detail
Coral Towers were the first towers at Emaar Oceanfront, completed in 2019, with units from 1,071 to 5,351 sq ft including duplex penthouses. Pearl Towers and Reef Towers share a two-storey podium, with three high-speed lifts in each Pearl tower, and Emaar reports that handover has started in the first two towers of each.
Panorama and The Views are sea-facing towers due for occupancy in 2026, each with an infinity pool, gym, business centre and residents’ lounge; Panorama adds a cinema room and a retail podium with units from 1,265 sq ft. Park Edge is a pair of towers at the centre of the community, overlooking its central park and the sea. Park Grand has the highest starting price at Emaar Oceanfront, with 158 apartments of two to five bedrooms that Emaar calls vertical villas, with an 80 by 30 foot pool facing the parks and a separate service entrance for every unit.
Who develops Emaar Oceanfront?
Emaar Oceanfront is developed by Emaar Pakistan, part of the Dubai developer Emaar Properties. Emaar’s brochures name the Karachi company as Emaar Giga Karachi Limited, while DHA’s project page calls it Emaar Karachi Limited. DHA endorses the project, and Emaar began issuing DHA membership to its residents in September 2020.
Emaar says Emaar Oceanfront is already home to more than 1,000 families.
Emaar Oceanfront or HMR Waterfront?
The two communities share the same stretch of coast. Emaar Oceanfront is further along, with completed and occupied towers and three projects due by 2028. HMR Waterfront’s first handover is in June 2027, with new apartments on sale in three towers on a plan that takes 90% of the price during construction. Prices per sq ft overlap, so the choice usually comes down to handover timing and which towers have the unit you want.
