    Sometimes it can be excitement that makes the heart to pump faster. It maybe too doctor may have told them that they have a limited time to live and they may say to themselves I have to visit such and such a place before I do and things happen. Anyway may her soul rest in peace

    I was there that day i was a qm2 guest. Very disturbing that not one local from the beach had no clue how to revive a drowned person. No cpr no lifeguards. Everyone was clueless. Took a hour for the ems to arrive. All they want is to hastle you and take your cash. These locals dont give a damm about the tourist. Just hustlers selling overpriced. BS. Very sad indeed.
