Karwar can any day be one of the best choices for a seaside holiday
anywhere in the world. So much so, it is said, the Nobel Laureate
Ravindranath Tagore was so moved by the magnificence of the place
to pen his first play. A visit to this place will make even the
least artistic to sing paeans of praise to Karwar.
The 12 plush cottages of the Estuary View Resort in Karwar
Karnataka, is in a heritage sight, its age going back to
the 17th century. It's perched atop 1500 feet above the road facing
the estuary (view of rivers joining together), giving you a grand-stand
view of unimaginable splendour that Nature has carved out for herself.
Each cottage, with its running cold and hot water, has a balcony
that overlooks the gorgeous confluence of Kali River with
the Arabian Sea. And the glorious sunrise and sunset that
you can watch from the rooms would be a slave to the most troubled
mind.

to change your currency, get travel assistance, have your clothes
laundered or indulge in picking up exquisite curious as mementoes.
