The most beautiful place in Karwar. It takes around 4-5 hours (to and fro ) from Karwar coast. If you love boating don't miss it.

The visit was arranged by Prafulla boating center and the experience was Awesome. Since it was a weekday, there were none, except us in the place and the view from the top of the light house was memorable. Thanks to Prafulla boating center for a wonderful boat ride which included Oyster Island, visit to the Light house, Kali mata temple and dolphins watch.
