From Wiki:

The submarine base is located at the point in Chinese territory that is closest to the continental shelf. It is roughly 50 nautical miles (93 km) from the base to the 200 meter isobath. It is 150 nautical miles (280 km) to the closest of the disputed Paracel Islands or the city of Da Nang, Vietnam. Speculation has been raised that the base is intended to be expanded to include future capability for aircraft carrier groups.

The submarine base is only a few miles from the city of Sanya, a popular tourist destination and the site of a major planned cruise hub. The base is immediately next to the Yalong Bay National Resort District featuring many resort hotels.

I’ve been to Hainan several times and Sanya once. As the crow flies, the sub base is about 10 or 11 miles form Sanya.

Nothing new. Nazis and Soviets had these underground bases.

I'll bet we have undersea bases. I know we were experimenting in the 1960s using a deep lake in Utah as a test bed.

It’s clear the Chinese wanted us to see this. The question is “Why”?

No doubt targeted by 2-3 five kiloton warheads which would arrive in four minutes from the start of hostilities from a U.S. boomer.
