Dive and drop a letter via sea mail !
There is a network of these underwater mailboxes:
One red letter box is 33' deep down at Susami’s underwater mailbox, off a small fishing town in Wakayama Prefecture, Japan -- Between 1,000 and 1,500 pieces of mail are collected annually, and as of 2018, nearly 38,000 letters had been sent.
In 2003, Vanuatu launched the Underwater Post Office, where divers can send off waterproof postcards that have been embossed with the help of postal workers stationed on the seafloor.
And in 2015, Malaysia unveiled its underwater mailbox located 131 feet below sea level, breaking records as the deepest underwater mailbox in the world.
