Holbrook, NSW.
H.M.A.S. Otway is a decommissioned Oberon class submarine that was once used to serve Australia.

Bought by the residents of Holbrook Shire with money raised by the citizens themselves as well as a generous donation from Gundula Holbrook, the widow of the late Commander Norman Holbrook, RAN it was reconstructed for display.

Today you can climb on top of the submarine to see the sheer size of it, walk the length as well as stand beside it for height perspective.

There is also a museum on the site that replays the history of the submarine.
