This charging system of an autonomous unmanned submarine is provided with an offshore floating body which floats on the ocean, a charging station which is suspended in the water by a string-shape body from the offshore floating body, receives the flow of water to be positioned downstream of the offshore floating body, and has a contactless power supply unit positioned separated from the string-shape body, and an autonomous unmanned submarine which is coupled to the charging station so as to be capable of rotating about the string-shape body and which has a contactless power receiving unit for receiving the power supplied from the contactless power supply unit, wherein the charging station assumes, through the water flow, an attitude in which the contactless power supply unit is positioned downstream of the string-shape body in the water flow direction, and, when coupled to the charging station, the autonomous unmanned submarine assumes, through the water flow, an attitude in which the contactless power receiving unit is positioned downstream of the string-shape body in the water flow direction.
