I believe the answer is:

divers

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue might be a double definition.

'sundry' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'underwater swimmers' is the second definition.
'divers' can be an answer for 'swimmers' (diver is a kind of swimmer). I am unsure of the 'underwater' bit.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for divers that I've seen before include "people taking the plunge" , "ducks" , "footballers going to the ground, needlessly" , "people going to bed?" , "competitors at the Olympic Games?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
