Visit The Submarine Ovens !

The vessel is situated on the main slipway at the western end of Victoria Quay. Entry to the submarine is via a set of 9 metre high stairs located near the bow of the vessel. Visitors need to be aware that as you move through the submarine it is necessary to step over bulkheads and to move through small areas.

The submarine is exited by a similar set of stairs at the stern of the vessel. Volunteer guides will be on hand to explain the intricacies of life beneath the waves and to answer visitors questions. It is suggested visitors wear flat shoes and comfortable clothes. Any children are to be closely supervised by accompanying adults at all times.
