Those aren't submarine shelters, they were built for torpedo boats in the communist Tito era. You can find them all over ex yugoslavia, mostly at strategically important entrances like kotor bay, split, sibenik, and on the east side of dugi otok. Tito was afraid of italians, or NATO in general, invading his socialist paradise. Espescially croatia is a kingdom of lost places. Whole islands were owned by the military with lots of abandoned artillery bunkers, barracks, airfields and so on.
Oh my gosh, i did not think i was so claustrophobic until those caves. My heart ❤ was pumping so fast. The flute soothe the fear. You give me such " JOY " sailing in my armchair traveling the world. All my friends travel. But i get to follow you on the High Seas and close to shore. Thank you for all the swashbuckling experiences vicariously through you! GOD BLESS THE WAVES YOU TRAVEL OR' HAPPY "2024" SAM & all your fellow sailors via internet ⛵
Hi Sam,Thank you so much for sharing your adventures with us. I don't have the freedom to travel yet, still raising kids! But I melt away into rejuvenating hope for the future peace of Sailing
Wow, you found so much cool stuff. That was awesome. Do you time the caves with the tides? Can't wait to see what you find next Sam, your seeing the world man!
If you had like a Sea Hunter underwater metal detector, I bet you could find old pirate coins and tourist's gold rings on these trips. 🤣Supplement your travel budget that way. 👍

Sam, that submarine cave looks really cool! Remnant from WWII Era? Quite likely. It also looks reminiscent of a cave used by a Bond Villain in one of the James Bond movies. COOL STUFF!! CHEERS!!
I know you. Keep. Things simple with. Cameras. And editing. And I love the gritty raw footage Just one question, the camera angles on the back of the dink, GoPro with a selfie stick? I'm Trying to figure out how you did it. I'll be heading. To the Philippines in February.and I'd like to get.some footage of the trip for my small Sailing Chanel. Love what you're doing!
@@samholmessailing wow.quick.responce! I have look at those cameras but haven't purchased one .. yet. Thanks for your insights. One day I hope. Our paths cross id love hang out with you one day. I've got to get my sailboat off the hard first a refit that I've been working on since 2020. Maybe I'll get it splashed but n 2024
"Well if I hit the reef I'll just push the boat off with the whisker pole." Well, that may be ok for your boat, but what about the reef? Reefs need all the help they can get these days and having the keel of a boat hit them probably doesn't do them any good. Kinda disappointed in you Sam.
That cave Saxophone performance was definitely the TH-cam highlight of 2024 so far! awesome Sam
Very cool find Sam! Both the caves and abandoned Sub base. Thank you for the share

Thanks for the info
Happy to see another American (correct?) enjoying my area. Next time give me a shout before coming here, and we'll meet if you want!
Thanks for elaborating
At 9:25, things on the ceiling ... good stuff for dreams
Now this is what I call “living an adventure”. Keep going!!

I watch and I smile and you are spectabulously entertaining
Wow what an amazing find always fun to find hidden caves and tunnels 👍🏼
Definitely!
One of my favorite videos you have made thus far! Those caves are awesome! Nice sax tunes too!

When you were in the sub tunnel walking down the hall something was crawling on the ceiling decently sized
squirrel??
There’s another one on the right wall, barely visible when he turns right. Centipedes of some sort maybe?
Maybe your best..
Demons!
el Chupacabra?!?! run like hell
I went there in 1978 and I saw a submarine exiting this cave at the entrance of Bay of Kotor.
Thank you Sam your hair is inspiring enjoy your winter off Cheers
Getting fancy with the multi angle shots
Pretty sure i met you in naples while driving a tow truck once in 2018 maybe, so inspired by your work, and im sure im not the only one. Keep it up
Nice luv you playing the instrument...m
2:10 great shot right there. For your book cover
Thank Sam!
You're my hero, Sam! Keep up the good work.
8:36.. that is what she said... cool adventure :-)
Love your music in this one!
You love to move at night! The Night Watch. Great reverb for that sax.
Cool place Sam! My dog absolutely loved your saxophone playing 🐶
Wow The Caves were really amazing!
Wow fantastic Sam 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Brilllllliant Sam - thanks for sharing ⛵️ 👍
Awesome sub port
You are musically talented Sam
Your uke and sax skills are awesome
great episode, that was fun.
Super cool! What a terrific experience!
This looks like the same cave as the Shiey video: Wild journey across Montenegro part 4. Very cool.
Really awesome filming!!
Sam, you and the blue Pickle are rubbing elbows with the ghosts of Tito's little navy in that cave.
Cool Sax.
Great video
Wow, you found so much cool stuff. That was awesome. Do you time the caves with the tides? Can't wait to see what you find next Sam, your seeing the world man!
wow, abandoned sub dock? alright, that was really cool...
Thank you Sam that was a nice video 😊🖐 stay safe oh ups😊
Whats the roof animal at 9:26?
would have been sick if you could have gotten your boat in the u boat pen. awesome video still.
Next time!
I was just in those caves last summer and they really are amazing. How nice that you seem to have them to yourself.
Very Cool Samuel,
I *Like* It!
🙏🦉
🇲🇪
Thanks for the sub pen Sam. I was on subs in the US Navy.
What boat ? Mine was 475 Argonaut
cool
How did you do the video of you coming out of the cave?
Wish you’d play tip toe through the tulips from Tiny Tim on your ukulele. That would be hilarious.😅
Great idea!
181st subscriber LIKE, 1,074th tag-along view... later... 3:53 - the sounds of primitive sax in a cave.
The se shelters Was Made for torpido boats

Are you using a drone to film in those caves? I’m just wondering how your filming. This was a great video!!
Thanx as always for posting, good vibes, take care, Crackerjack. P.S., chicks dig the long hair! Mine does anyway. All the best dude.
If I can request a song to play in caves on the saxophone...take five by Dave Brubeck please.
Who makes that saxophone?
Super cool vibe as usual and Montenegro looks so nice. Not sailing related, but anyone know what the minisax is called? It sounds pretty good!
Nuvo sax
What do they say in horror movies "Don't go in the tunnel!" And there you go. Pickle got her big ones from you.
What song was that you were playing on the guitar?
Man you are like a jedi or no that movie jumper were that kid jumps all over world sax aphone in the cave naied it

Is that a shadow or creature on the roof at 9:27?
Sam, that submarine cave looks really cool!
Remnant from WWII Era? Quite likely.
It also looks reminiscent of a cave used by a Bond Villain in one of the James Bond movies.
COOL STUFF!!
CHEERS!!
Not WWII era, it was later when Montenegro was part of Yugoslavia.
The British built a submarine base under Malta to control ship traffic in the Mediterranean during WW2
No,it's post ww2 socialist Yugoslavia time. There are a lot if these fast torpedo boat bunkers on former Yugoslavia coast.
I follow another train hopping TH-camr that visited that sub base .
Sam, did you lose the little electric motor for lingonberry?
I only use it if i’ve got to go a far way.
need someone to tell me what that reflective monilith was! 😂
GIFGAS was there in a lovely episode, do you follow him?
Man what was that .moving around in that cave when you first went in looked like a sea snake
Oh it was a bird lol ha ha

Comment Comments. Yea
Bud one day im going to get you all set up with cubaae so you can make tunes for your own videos
Is there anything Sam Holmes can’t do
Are you sure those weren’t bats 🙂
Play the sax like Sydney Beschet....😅😅
So, using his saxophone, did Sam just turn that cave into a blowhole?
Where is your elekricmotor?😂
America is too cold. When do you come by ?
Is that where Popeye was filmed?
I can’t believe you spent so little time on the submarine pen ! You go in a once in a life time place , and you give it about 2 mins !
"Well if I hit the reef I'll just push the boat off with the whisker pole." Well, that may be ok for your boat, but what about the reef? Reefs need all the help they can get these days and having the keel of a boat hit them probably doesn't do them any good. Kinda disappointed in you Sam.
Wasn’t a problem
Sax in a cave.
If I send you the 25 bucks will you get a hair cut
