Amazing Photos

The Monastery of the Holy Trinity, Greece

The Underwater Post Office is a fully functioning operation (the only of its kind in the world) located in about ten feet of water off of Vanuatu's Hideaway Island Resort and Marine Sanctuary. People are able to don snorkeling gear, swim down to the fiberglass booth, and mail waterproof postcards to their loved ones—and pose for a fun vacation photo, of course.

Silfra fissure, Thingvellir National Park, Iceland
offers adventurers something that no other diving spot in the world can—the chance to swim between two continental plates. The crack between the Eurasian and North American plates widens about two centimeters each year, and divers and snorkelers can enjoy the impressive water visibility, bright green algae, and sheer geological uniqueness—no matter the time of year.

The Green Lake, Tragoess, Austria
During the fall and winter, Austria’s Green Lake is a small but scenic body of water surrounded by popular hiking trails. But when the snow on the bordering mountains begins to melt in the spring, the run-off causes the lake’s water levels to rise. By June, the nearby park becomes completely submerged, making for one of the most unusual diving experiences in the world.
