3402 - First thought was ‘Above us the waves’ but looked at IMDb to check I had it right and found that there was a remake called ‘Submarine X1’
I suspect it might be the latter - loosely about Op Source.

Spot on! The beaches are not very good, open water (the Pacific, cold current) and hungry predators of the marine kind! Interestingly, in view is the Princess Hotel, where Howard Hughes spent his last days - Oops! It would have made a good additional quiz question!
