In the times of the USSR, a top secret submarine base was built inside the rock situated at the passage into Balaklava Bay. The magnitude of this facility will take your breath away, it shapes an underground city. Semi-submersed, submarines used to enter the rock via two canals. The facility could accommodate up to 6 submarines at a time! This factory would shelter in case of atomic bombing and was capable to resist the direct hit of a 100 kilotons bomb. Every detail was in place for life support — food-stuff storehouses, dwelling rooms, kitchens, self-contained air supply system, diesel generators, fuel and water pipelines, underground railways.

Diving takes place in the underground canal, where the main waterworks of this base were located, including a dry dock among an assemblage of metal supports, frames and facilities.
