A BRIT stag party reveller has died after a drowning incident off the the coast of Monaco.
The 40 year old man, who has not been named, was among a group of revellers who had been partying on a beach.
Officials said he dived into the sea and quickly got into trouble although the water was said to be calm at the time.
The tragedy happened at Cap-D’Ail off the coast of Monaco in southern France late on Friday afternoon as the area enjoyed a late summer heat wave.
A life guard dived into the sea and pulled the man ashore after pals raised the alarm and he gave him CPR for several minutes but was unable to save him.
Officials said drink may have played a part in the drowning and an autopsy would be carried out.
A police spokesman said the victim was from Essex and members of the stag party were being questioned about the incident before being allowed to fly home.
The man was not the groom and the group was staying in nearby Nice after arriving on Friday for the weekend.
