Fifteen years on the Ravi — what’s changed

By umair · Lahore Marina Club

When we launched our first wooden skiff at Head Baloki in 2010, friends in Lahore asked why anyone would travel 43 kilometers just to float on the river. Fifteen years later, hundreds of families make that very journey every weekend.

The city has grown noisier and denser, making the wide open sky and water of the Ravi even more precious. We look back with profound gratitude to every sailor, pilot, and guest who has shared the dock with us.
