About St. Marys Submarine Museum

St. Marys, the site of Kings Bay Naval Submarine Base—one of the world's two Trident submarine bases—was a natural choice for a museum devoted to the Silent Service. Yet the curators and collectors went above and beyond. The finished dive into deep-sea history is the largest of its kind in the South and the fifth largest in the country, giving a comprehensive look at life under the water.

  • Size: 20,000 savaged artifacts, paintings, models, and photographs spread across 5,000 square feet
  • Eye Catcher: replicas of torpedoes and WWII deep-sea diving suits
  • Crown Jewel: the museum's modern, working periscope, which gives kids of all ages the chance to see if there's another museum sneaking up on them
