Food Tip at Kankavali Station as of 13/04/2023:

You get fresh Puranpoli, Amboli Chutney, Fried Modak and Steamed Modak at Kankavali Railway Station Platform #1. You can get it packed and have it on trains too.

people who are unaware of these amazing Maharashtrian Dishes:
1. Puranpoli: It is a paratha with stuffing which consists of Jaggery and Cardamom
2. Amboli: It is a thicker version of Dosa.
3. Modak: Momos stuffed with Jaggery and Coconut.

One of the major thing missing on Konkan Railway stations is the unavailability of these amazing local dishes.

Please correct me if I am wrong. Isn't it better to use Sindhudurg station for going to tourist places around Sindhudurg? Why Kankavali?

SNDD stn has less no of trains halt. And Public bus and auto Transportation is the main problem at Stations.
But at KKW you can get bus and auto at any time. Station location is in city. Stn is walkable from Depot.
At mid night between 12 to 6, you will get autorickshaw.

Not all above mentioned places are nearby to Sndd stn. Only Malvan and Tarkarli are near to Sndd. But both places are good accessible from Kankavali.

Apart from Kudal, Kankavali is the station which is very close to the town. Bus stand is just 1.8 Kms away from railway station and Mumbai Goa highway is just 1 km away from station. Even Kudal station is far away from NH66. Kankavli is the safest station to alight even during night time. Many lodges are there in town.
