An elderly Australian has drowned off of East Bali. The 82 year old woman was snorkeling at the time. This takes the week’s total to 3 Australians you have come to grief in the ocean.
On saturday a surfer drowned off of Seminyak beach, and on Sunday a surfer was listed as missing after surfing at Uluwatu. Scary stull and shows just how easily you can get into trouble. I almost drowned in QLD Australia years ago and it is a terrifying realization, when it happens. The safest way to snorkel in Bali, is to go with a group and hire a boat.

I am a good swimmer but the closest I ever came to being afraid of water was at Kuta, where I rented a board for the first time and thought surfing was easy. I almost drowned. It was not a pleasant feeling. BE CAREFUL!!
