Karwar has three nearby railway stations: Karwar, Asnoti and Harwada.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4] A 1.69 km (1.05 mi) railway bridge on Kali River falls before Karwar Railway Station while travelling from the side of Goa. The town of Karwar is situated beside Kali River.

Karwar is connected by Konkan Railway which connects Delhi, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Ajmer, Jaipur, Mysuru, Rajkot, Ernakulam, Indore, Bhopal, Thiruvananthapuram, Coimbatore, Jaipur, Ratlam, Madurai,. Hubli -Ankola railway line is proposed to link and the northern Karnataka as well as Honnavar -Talaguppa railway line.

However, the Save Konkan Ecology Forum (SKEF) is strictly & violently opposing Hubli–Ankola railway line & Honnavar–Talaguppa railway line projects, citing concerns regarding destruction & disruption of ecology, environment, forest, animals, flora & fauna of Ankola Forest & Talguppa Forest regions. Karwar is just 60.84 km (37.80 mi) away from Madgaon in Goa.
