AGP Executive Report

Cave-diving tragedy update: Divers have recovered the bodies of two of the four remaining Italians who died deep inside a Vaavu Atoll underwater cave, with recovery described as “very challenging” due to poor visibility and strong currents; searches had resumed after a local military diver died during the retrieval attempt, and officials say Finnish experts spotted the bodies in the cave’s innermost area, with the remaining two expected to be recovered next. Tourism safety & accountability: The Maldives has suspended the licence of the dive boat involved and is investigating what went wrong, as the deaths occurred at around 60m—well beyond the country’s recreational diving limit. Arts & culture in the background: Visit Maldives is also pushing new market momentum, signing with Australia’s Luxury Escapes as an official representative, while JOALI BEING launches its 2026 B’Kidult Summer Programme to keep family travel experience-led and creative.
