Two British tourists, a 17-year-old boy and a 46-year-old man, drowned while swimming at a lifeguard-free beach in Seventeen Seventy, Queensland, near the Great Barrier Reef. A third individual, an Australian man, is in life-threatening condition after being swept out to sea and sustaining serious head injuries. Authorities are treating the drownings as non-suspicious, and locals are urged to seek safety information and swim in designated areas, as Australia reported 107 drownings last year, with a significant portion involving overseas visitors.
