WELCOME TO THE HOME PAGE
OF
"ESPANA LEVANTE SUBMARINERS"
Benidorm
A sun-dodgers paradise, all welcome.
We are a group of retired and ex Royal Navy submariners from Spain and UK who meet bi-annually for a reunion based on Rum, DITS and as little protocol as possible.
NEW ITEM OF INTEREST A new item has been added to the 'Project Barney' page recording the successful culmination of Mal Blenkinsopp's efforts with the project which has now culminated in the publishing on the 'Submarine Family' web site of the 'Submarine Online Book of Remembrance'. Well done Mal.
We were formed in April 2009. The first overseas Branch outside of the British Commonwealth. Currently with over 40 Members , it covers a large area of southern Spain, predominantly the Costa Blanca, and all inland areas in between. As some members have to travel considerable distances, meetings currently take place twice yearly in April and October. This allows reasonable accommodation charges in Benidorm where the meetings are held. Some members attend for the Reunion Meeting which is always on a Saturday. We also have an branch evening meal on the Friday or Saturday evening. For details of the date of future meetings - see our "ELS_NOTICES" page If you are interested in joining us go to the Membership page, fill in the form and email as suggested.
