Australian surfer Callum Robinson’s devastated girlfriend has revealed a heartbreaking voicemail he had left her before he and two friends died during a trip to Mexico last month.

San Diego local Emily Horwath posted the touching message from the 33-year-old Perth native, who was found dead at the bottom of a 50-foot well in Baja Mexico alongside his brother, Jake Robinson, 30, and his American friend, Jack. Carter Rhoad, 30 years old.

“Happy Tuesday! Good morning,” Callum said in the message he posted on his Instagram story, Australia’s 7 News reported.

“It’s 11:11 and I’m just thinking about you. I just wanted to send you a quick message and say hi, honey.

“I hope you are having a phenomenal start to your day. Today I feel a big smile on your face for some reason. I hope you are full of positivity and smiles.

“Greetings, darling. I miss you.”

Horwath wrote that she will “play this over and over again” in the caption.

“This man changed my life in a way I can’t even put into words,” she wrote in another post with a photo of her arms around Callum. “I still don’t understand a world without him and his energy. I feel very grateful to have loved him.

“Tell your people you love them,” he continued. “Live life to the fullest every day, be kind to others, laugh uncontrollably. Don’t let the little things bother you. lead with positivity. and live like Cal.”

The three friends were last seen alive on April 27 in the city of Ensenada.

Mexican authorities initially said the three were victims of a violent carjacking; However, The Post learned that they may have been killed by cartel members searching for a rival gang, as Baja California is in the midst of a drug war.

Three people, Jesús Gerardo García Cota, his partner Ari Gisel García Cota and his brother Cristian Alejandro García, were arrested in connection with the disappearance of the three surfers, but so far have not been charged with murder.

Prosecutors allege the trio attacked the surfers over their car tires before the confrontation turned violent. They then hid their bodies in a well about six kilometers away.

But that story doesn’t seem to add up, a source who works in private security in Mexico told The Post. Instead, he believes the surfers were misidentified as a rival criminal organization and murdered by the cartel.

“Given the deep and widespread corruption in the Mexican police, it is difficult to rule out the possibility of a cover-up, potentially to deflect blame from a powerful drug cartel. “This would certainly align with the Mexican government’s efforts to downplay the severity of cartel violence in Mexico,” the source said.

Prosecutors said a fourth body was also found at the bottom of the well. They are believed to be the remains of a rancher who owned the property and who disappeared two weeks earlier.
