Karwar, known in Konkani as Kadwad (kade meaning last and Wado means land) will certainly delight tourists and nature lovers with its ample natural exquisiteness and diversity. What is fascinating and striking about Karwar is that the moment one enters this small city, headquarters of Uttara Kannada, it is like getting into the sea shore directly walking into the beach which is just a furlong from the bus station and the market area.
The museum and its surroundings have been well developed and maintained and is located between NH17 and the Karwar Beach. It serves as a good place to visit for tourists especially in the evening. The museum has a small entry fee and the tour starts with a video of that shows the glory of the Indian Navy for about 15 minutes and then you can tour the War Ship.
