The Bahamas
Cool Facts!
The Bahamas was the first country to have an underwater post office
from 1939 to 1940. The seafloor post office was actually a submarine sphere used
for filming underwater scenes such as the ones featured in "Jules Verne's
Ten Thousand Leagues Under The Sea". Chiefly meant for tourists, the
seafloor post office allowed tourists to get a breathtaking view of marine sea
life and send a souvenir postcard home with an exclusive seafloor post-mark. |
