History edit

The first naval base was established here in 1915.[citation needed] There is no rail link to Ostrovnoy and the settlement is reachable by coastal ship, helicopter or small plane in winter.[citation needed]

Until 1938, the town was known as Yokanga. Until 1981,[citation needed] the town was known as Gremikha.[9]

The Gremikha Naval Base was one of the Northern Fleet's main facilities for servicing nuclear submarines.[10][11]
