Talk about apocalyptic. This semi-submerged prison has a dark past. Prisoners were forced to work in the quarry until it was abandoned in the early 1990s when Estonia gained independence from the Soviet Union. Without any people maintaining the area, it eventually flooded with water. Today, it's a beach—so if this is your idea of a beach vacation, we recommend you get your scuba diving license first.
