Canberra – A cruise passenger was accidentally left behind while going ashore on an island in Australia’s Great Barrier Reef and died. As Australia’s ABC News reports, the 80-year-old passenger of the “Coral Adventurer” took part in a group hike on Lizard Island organized by the cruise operator. On the way, she told the group that she couldn’t go any further, but that she would return to the ship herself later.
