The world's first successful sub (in 1864!) This is a Must-See experience. Learn more about the Civil War and Charleston's pivotal role in it.
H. L. Hunley, often referred to as Hunley, was a submarine of the Confederate States of America that played a small part in the American Civil War. It is a favorite for us because your host was apart of a team devoted to the recovery of the wreckage from the ocean floor. Tours are available on weekends.
One of the first successful submarines. The Confederate Hunley Museum tells the tale that changed naval warfare forever.
The Hunley was the first submersible used in actual combat, when the Confederacy was attempting to break the blockade of Charleston. Though it kept sinking and killing everyone on board, they finally brought down the Housatonic - and then it sank again, killing everyone on board. They recovered it in 2000.
