Guinness World Records stabilito alle Maldive

Le Maldive, conosciute per le sue splendide isole e la ricca biodiversità marina, hanno stabilito diversi Guinness World Records unici che ne mettono in risalto l'unicità ambientale e culturale. Ecco alcuni dei record:

1. La maggior parte delle persone praticano l'apnea contemporaneamente:
   On October 1, 2019, the Maldives set a world record when 521 people participated in a mass freediving event. This event, orchestrated by the Ministry of Tourism, took place in the Baros Lagoon and even included the President of Maldives, Ibrahim Mohamed Solih, as a participant​ (Guinness World Records)​.
   
   
2. Il bacio sott'acqua più lungo:
   On Valentine’s Day in 2023, a conservation couple, Beth Neale and Miles Cloutier, achieved the record for the longest underwater kiss, lasting 4 minutes and 6 seconds. This romantic feat occurred at LUX* Atollo di Ari Sud, and the event aimed to promote ocean conservation​.
   
   
3. World’s Largest 3D Printed Coral Reef:
   Recognized in 2021, the Summer Island Maldives features the largest 3D printed coral reef. This innovative project not only helps promote coral growth but also stands as a testament to the use of technology in environmental conservation. The reef was designed in Melbourne, Australia, and then transported and submerged in the Maldives to help foster marine life​.

These records not only showcase the Maldives’ commitment to environmental sustainability but also its capability to host world-class events that bring attention to critical issues such as marine conservation and innovative technologies in ecological preservation. Each Guiness World record emphasizes the country’s unique approach to blending tourism with conservation efforts.
