The primary U.S. Submarine Bases are:
Groton, Connecticut (New London)
Norfolk, Virginia
King's Bay, Georgia
Mare Island, California (San Francisco)
San Diego, California
Bangor, Washington
Pearl Harbor, Hawaii
Groton, King's Bay and Bangor are Submarine bases only; King's Bay and Bangor are the Trident Submarine refit facilities. Groton is the traditional home of all Submariners, being just a stone's throw from General Dynamics' Electric Boat Division, where modern U.S. submarines began over a century ago.
The other bases are combined Naval Bases, meaning they have ships, submarines, and aircraft bases, as well as Command and Support facilities.
Best spots? Pearl, San Diego, or Groton. I was stationed out of Charleston, S.C., for 6 years, but NS Charleston is gone now. If I had a choice today, I'd probably pick either San Diego or Pearl - Groton sucks in the winter.
