Underwater swing in Gaafaru becomes a hit with locals and tourists
An underwater swing installed about 15 feet deep in the lagoon off Kaafu Gaafaru, launched by local guesthouse operators, has become popular with local children and tourists who swim among fish and sharks. Gaafaru, with 11 guesthouses, is described as one of the fastest-growing local tourism destinations, and the Maldives Fund Management Corporation has announced plans to reclaim 16 islands in its lagoon for a tourism project.

Who said what
the reports' own quoted words, each once
Previously, we took tourists to a distant shark point and charged for it. Now, we've created a nearby spot where sharks naturally congregate and set up this swing. These aren't dangerous sharks
Nothing to compare yet. If another monitored source reports it, its headline appears beside this one.
