Located within the Hideaway Island marine sanctuary, the Underwater Post Office in Vanuatu sits in around 3 mts of water and both divers and snorkellers are able to post special “waterproof postcards”.
The cards , cancelled/embossed by the postal staff in the Underwater Post Office, with ink to show that the card has been sent, the Post office has developed using a new embossed cancellation device that is waterproof
This unique postal location was approved by Vanuatu and opened for business in May 2003.
Out of hours the post cards can be posted in the underwater post box attached to the post office to receive the special cancellation from this unique underwater paradise before being delivered both locally and internationally.
