Karwar- Truly worth a Visit


We did an amazing tour last year end in December. I was accompanied by my husband and daughter while we visited KARWAR- A coastal town in north Karnataka bordering Goa. A major part of it is under the control of Indian Navy under the prestigious project Seabird.  We enjoyed what the nature opened its wings and offered us to explore.


Being a coastal town, we decided to spend most of the time on the beach. The beach had clean waters, clean sand and a wonderful view of the sunset.  A garden just alongside the beach turned out to be a good recreation and education park as there was an old Navy ship installed for the public to see. The kids loved to see the ship in its real form complete with the engine, fake models of ammunition and the life of a sailor inside the ship.



The beach waters welcomed us with cool and steady waves and we had our share of fun when we became kids along with the kids.




Now for some FooooooD!!!

The afternoon lunch was hosted by SHWETA LUNCH HOME. A popular restaurant which served delicious  fish Thalis made traditionally with all Karwar authenticity.
The restaurant was a gleeful one , crowded to prove itself and aroma of fried fish told us ‘We are at the Right Place’
We saw a few familiar boards. One with an appreciation from the famous Rocky and Mayur team “Highway on My Plate” which telecasts on the channel NDTV Goodtimes. The other one was with NDTV Zaika India ka , Vinod Dua ke Saath.  Both these posters were proudly exhibited by the owner who took personal effort to see all his customers were served properly.





It was a mouth watering platter with rotis,rice, fish curry, Bangda fry, Solkadi, vegetables and salad. We also took a Pomfret fry to suffice our appetite. The taste was indeed traditional and made with the right expertise to blend the spices which brought out the flavor in full galore. We ate to our hearts content and thanked the owner for his hospitality.
We also visited Shree GuruMatt  which is the Samadhi Shree Padmanabh Swami. Thus with many memories of Karwar  we proceeded on our tour. I would like to appeal to all readers to visit Karwar- An Unexplored destination in Karnataka that unfolds nature in its mesmerizing  form
