Navy's first submarine base, the Naval Submarine Base New London, and the Electric Boat Division of General Dynamics, designer and manufacturer of nuclear submarines, Groton is often referred to as the "submarine capital of the world." The submarine Nautilus, a National Historic Landmark, is a major draw, as is the Submarine Force Museum.
