First Underwater Hotel


The president of U.S. Submarines, Bruce Jones, plans to build “The Poseidon Mystery Island” — an underwater hotel which will be located in a 5,000-acre coral lagoon in northeastern Fiji. The hotel, which will sit in about 40 feet of water, will boast individual suites, as well as a library, a wedding chapel and a restaurant. In addition to scuba diving, the guests will be able to cruise around the lagoon in either a 16-person submarine capable of 300-foot-depths, or learn to pilot a three-person Triton sub, which can reach 1,000 feet. Each individual suite will be 550 square feet large, will feature a Jacuzzi, and will be capped by four-inch-thick acrylic windows, which make up about 70 percent of the wall space. Fish feeders will fire food into the water to attract local wildlife. To prevent overfeeding, the system will be limited to a prescribed number of cartridges each day. The only problem is that Jones needs to find $105 million to complete the resort. Watch the movie clip on You Tube

There is a serious error that needs to be corrected in the post on the Poseidon Undersea Resort. How can the author be contacted?
