Submarine tourism of submerged Dwarka city to commence operations soon

Gujarat’s Dwarka city, located on the far west corner of the state, has many folk tales surrounding Lord Krishna as its prime character. One of the epics goes by saying the city of Krishna was submerged under the ocean thousands of years ago.

Gujarat Tourism and the state government are set to run a passenger submarine in the Arabian Sea on Dwarka’s coast to visit the location hundreds of feet deep where the city existed, as per folklore.

An MoU has been signed by a company with the state government for this project.

It is speculated that this attraction can be operational after Janmashtami or Diwali in the upcoming year. However, an official announcement on this issue will reportedly be made at the upcoming Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit (VGGS), scheduled to take place on Jan 10, 2024, in Gandhinagar.

Dwarka submarine tour
Built with a capacity to carry 30 people at a time, the submarine will be able to house 24 passengers in a single trip, alongside two pilots, two divers, a technician, and a guide on every trip.

Seating for the passengers will be organised in two rows, each having a window view, giving a direct display of the natural spectacle of marine life at a depth of 300 feet.

Oxygen masks, face masks, and a scuba suit will be provided by the operating agency.

The submarine will be equipped with natural lights and other communication systems, along with the facility of video conferencing.

Another project, the Okha-Beyt Dwarka Signature Bridge, regarded as the largest cable bridge across the Arabian Sea, is also nearing completion and will be opened around Janmashtami next year.
