Basol River

Basol River (Urdu: دریائے با سول) is a river that flows southward in the Gwadar District of Balochistan Province, in southwestern Pakistan.

The Basol River drains a desert area of the Makran region, with its river mouth at Khor Kalmat lagoon on the Gulf of Oman, of the Arabian Sea.^[1][2][3]

The Basol is said to be one of Balochistan’s four coastal rivers, in addition to the Hingol, Hub and Kech rivers, that support a healthy crocodile population. The rainwater that the Basol and the other three rivers rely on leaves behind small and big ponds that serve as habitats for the crocodiles.^[4]
