Hi @rizwanccie,

Local guides/map user can only add swimming lake in google map. For other type of lake you can use send feedback option.

In simple way> open map> drag map to lake> click on three lines at top left corner> drag up and find help> in help find send feedback> select desired area and fill all required details>Tap send(arrow at top right corner).
