Onondaga Submarine

Québec


Explore a former Canadian navy sub, which operated in the North Atlantic from 1967 to 2000, as you crawl through the porthole-like doorways, check out the engine room and squeeze into the bunk rooms that accommodated a crew of 70. A one-hour audio guide tells you more about submarine life. The sub is part of the Pointe-au-Père Lighthouse National Historic Site.
