A teenager from County Galway has drowned off the coast of Croatia.
The young man, who was in his late teens and from Moycullen, was part of a group of 40 young people from Galway, who had travelled to Split to attend a music festival.
It is understood the NUIG student fell from a yacht in Split, and his body was recovered from the sea just before 10 o'clock this morning.

The group was due to travel back to Galway later this week.
The Department of Foreign Affairs is providing consular assistance, and the Irish Embassy in Zagreb is liaising with the young man's family.
