Gremikha Naval Base, Military naval base in Ostrovnoy, Russia
The Gremikha Naval Base occupies a strategic position on the Kola Peninsula, featuring a natural canal measuring 500 meters wide between the mainland and Iokagansky islands.
The Northern Fleet established this easternmost naval facility during the Soviet era, serving as a critical refueling and maintenance point for submarines until 1997.
Military personnel stationed at Gremikha resided in the nearby communities of Ostrovny and Yagernaya, forming specialized naval residential zones within the Arctic region.
The naval installation remains accessible exclusively through maritime vessels or helicopter transportation, with winter storms frequently limiting entry to the facilities.
The base extends across 6,770 meters of pier facilities, positioned within an ice-free harbor that maintains year-round maritime access despite its Arctic location.
