Why this place is special
This is the museum to choose when you want to understand how sailors lived and worked together in a confined vessel. Pair it with an aviation museum for a clear sea-to-sky contrast.
A decommissioned Indian Navy submarine is preserved beside RK Beach. The visit gives the city's maritime story a physical scale: compact spaces, equipment, and the working environment of a submarine crew.
Don't miss
- The submarine's exterior profile
- Crew spaces and equipment on the permitted route
