Best Answer

The first president to travel in a submarine was Teddy Roosevelt.
President Dwight D. Eisenhower was the first President to dive onboard a nuclear submarine. On September 26, 1957, he took a 15 minute dive aboard USS Seawolf (SSN-575).
It was claimed Theodore Roosevelt. it should be noted James Earl Carter was a submarine officer, (not as president) and while he never commanded a submarine, did see active duty on them.

Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter served aboard a nuclear submarine when he was in the Navy, but he was not the captain. No U.S. President was ever a submarine captain.
