Olenya Bay

When you go to the Russian Naval base in Olenya Bay, you will see a submarine graveyard on its shores. Located on the Kola Peninsula, the base is a bleak naval facility that is home to Cold War vessels and hardware. The rusted submarine below dates back to the ‘70s. The reason the submarine was abandoned there was that the shipyard could no longer deal handle all the massive military vessels. A lot of the submarines were then towed away and left for dead near the Nezametnaya Cove.

Pacific Fleet Submarines Nuclear Shelter

This unfinished nuclear shelter was meant to hold the Pacific Ocean Fleet Soviet subs. Located in Pavlosk, it is a dark labyrinth of tunnels that seem to be frozen in time. The base served as a Soviet hideout for submarines, although it was deserted 30 years before it could even be used. The construction started in 1960 and started out with two massive parallel tunnels that then connected to smaller tunnels. Unfortunately, construction started slowing down in the ‘80s until it was ultimately abandoned. There is a good chance it could still be used in the future upon its completion, however.
