According to the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in August, three foreign tourists died in the "Devil's Tears" on Lembongan Island in Indonesia, including one Chinese citizen killed and injured. It is not a tourist attraction, and there are no safety protection facilities, and only warning signs are set up on the shore.

In order to pursue the photo effect, tourists often walk close to the cliff edge, and the large waves that are caught off guard often shoot down or even sweep away tourists.

The local tides and surges are dangerous, and the power of the tide to suck back is huge, and once tourists are caught in the sea, it is very dangerous.
