Queensland woman falls to her death at Bali cliff popular with tourists

A Queensland woman visiting Bali on holiday tragically fell to her death at the popular Nusa Penida cliff Kelingking beach on Saturday morning local time. The 29-year-old was found stuck on the side of the 180-meter-high coastal cliff, having slipped and fallen into a ravine. Emergency services arrived at the scene but she had already fallen further before their arrival.

Police described her death as "incredibly sad" and confirmed that she sustained multiple fractures. Kelingking beach, known also as T-Rex Bay, is a favorite tourist destination offering breathtaking panoramic views, but swimming is banned year-round due to treacherous currents. The woman's family has requested privacy during this difficult time, and Queensland's premier expressed deep sorrow over the loss, stating that the incident left "a huge degree of sorrow" across the state.
