Following the South African visit, TF1 transited the Mozambique Channel into the Indian Ocean where the ships then called at Mombasa, before transiting the Indian Ocean to Pakistan, where they rendezvoused with three ships of the Pakistan Navy, before the entire force called at Karachi. However, due to the sea conditions it was determined to be too dangerous for either "Enterprise" or "Long Beach" to enter the port; instead, while "Bainbridge" came alongside, the two larger ships were forced to anchor several miles outside the harbour.
