Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

Porto Palermo Tunnel (Albanian: Tuneli i Porto Palermos) is claimed to be a submarine bunker built in the Socialist People's Republic of Albania during the rule of leader Enver Hoxha. It is situated at the northern end of the bay of Porto Palermo. It is no longer in use as such, but remains in a military restriction zone. Almost certainly its main function was as a homebase for fast attack craft. Unlike submarines, these craft are short range coastal defence vessels that lie hidden during the day near to where they have to operate at night. Albanian Whiskey class submarines were long range vessels and were normally based further from Pashaliman Naval Base in the Bay of Vlore. Retired in 1998, submarines are still located in Pashaliman.

Summary from Shqip / Albanian Wikipedia (sqwiki)

Tuneli i Porto Palermos pretendohet të jetë një bunker nëndetësesh i ndërtuar në Republikën Popullore Socialiste të Shqipërisë gjatë sundimit të liderit Enver Hoxha. Ndodhet në skajin verior të gjirit të Porto Palermos. Ai nuk është më në përdorim si i tillë, por mbetet në një zonë kufizimi ushtarak. Pothuajse me siguri funksioni i tij kryesor ishte si një bazë për mjetet e sulmit të shpejtë. Ndryshe nga nëndetëset, këto anije janë anije mbrojtëse bregdetare me rreze të shkurtër veprimi që shtrihen të fshehura gjatë ditës afër vendit ku duhet të operojnë natën. Nëndetëset shqiptare të klasës Whisky ishin anije me rreze të gjatë dhe zakonisht bazoheshin më larg nga baza detare e Pashalimanit në Gjirin e Vlorës. Në pension në vitin 1998, nëndetëset gjenden ende në Pashaliman.
