Australian tourist dies in fall from Kelingking Beach cliff in Bali
Bali newsBali13 min read
A 29-year-old Australian tourist from Queensland died after falling from a 180-meter-high cliff at Kelingking Beach on Nusa Penida, an island east of Bali. Emergency responders found her body on the beach with multiple broken bones and other injuries. Due to high waves, her body was carried up the steep, narrow staircase along the cliff over approximately 1.5 hours. The tourist reportedly slipped while trying to reach the cliff's edge. Kelingking Beach, also known as "T-Rex Bay," is a popular attraction, but its descent is considered a challenging hike. An elevator to the beach was built by late last year but was subsequently halted due to opposition from tourists and local politicians.

Australian man and two young children found dead in Bali bungalow
An Australian man, Damien John Shaw, 56, and his two children, a six-year-old son and a four-year-old daughter, were discovered deceased in their Kuta bungalow in Bali. Bali provincial police reported that the bodies were found on Sunday morning after neighbors checked on the family. The check was prompted by a call from Shaw's wife, who was in Jakarta and became concerned when her call with her husband disconnected after she heard her child cry. Neighbors, along with a community head, found the three bodies. Police are investigating the case as a suspected murder-suicide and are conducting forensic examinations of the crime scene, reviewing CCTV footage, and interviewing witnesses. The bodies have been moved to Sanglah Hospital for further examination. The family had been leasing the bungalow in Kuta since 2022. The Australian consulate is providing consular support to the family.

Australian tourist dies after falling from cliff at Kelingking Beach, Nusa Penida
Brianna Cronin, a 29-year-old ecologist from Queensland, Australia, died after falling from a cliff at Kelingking Beach on Nusa Penida island, near Bali. She was found at the bottom of a steep drop on Saturday morning. Local authorities believe she was seeking an independent path toward the cliff edge around 9am when she slipped and fell into a ravine. Emergency services initially found her stuck on the cliff side, but she fell further to her death during recovery efforts. Queensland Premier David Crisafulli expressed his sympathies to her family. Kelingking Beach, known for its panoramic views from a 180-meter-high coastal cliff, is a popular destination for Bali tourists. Swimming at the beach is typically banned due to hazardous currents, and the hike from the cliff top to the coast can take two hours. Her body was recovered by emergency services after a one-and-a-half-hour operation to haul her up steep, narrow stairs, as a sea operation was canceled due to high tides.
