International Submariners Association
The Association was formed in 1962 and is non-political and non-denominational. The aim of the Association is to
show friendship and goodwill towards each other. To arrange exchange visits for us and our children for a better
understanding in the future. To remain loyal to our Sovereign and country at all times and to work for the ideals
that World War II was fought – freedom of speech, expression and thoughts.
The I.S.A. is a world wide Association of Submariners. Annually, a 3 day Congress is held, hosted by a different
country each year, when Submariners and their ladies from all over the world enjoy getting together socially,
meeting old friends and making new ones, dining and dancing, sightseeing etc.
The I.S.A.[GB] holds three meetings per year- in the Middle section of the UK, i.e. North, Stoke across to Norwich
and South, Cardiff across to Southend. A hotel is chosen in the designated area, where we can have our meeting
on the Saturday and dine together in the evening. These meetings have also become great social occasions
where we meet up with old boat mates and enjoy a few drinks together. The ladies are also made most welcome –
in fact, the I.S.A. encourages the ladies to take part in all their activities.
Further information about any of the above is available on request from the Secretary.

2026 61st International Submariners Congress, Great Britain Edinburgh (Scotland).
Registration is now open.
Dear Submariners of the world, The 61st International Submariners
Congress in Edinburgh is a year away, and we have most of the
details planned. I have attached the program for the four days,
25th-28th May 2026. Please note that Monday, 25 May, is a public
holiday. Click on link to see the attached program below.
For convenience, we have chosen the DoubleTree by Hilton
Edinburgh Airport as the central hotel, as the transport links are
good and the hotel costs half that of the city centre.
As with all congresses, the website will be up in the summer, along
with the booking information.
