Three Britons have been found dead near a popular tourist site in Vietnam, according to state-run media.

The Tuoi Tre newspaper in Vietnam is reporting that the bodies were recovered close to the Datanla waterfalls near Da Lat in east Vietnam and that all three were wearing life jackets.

Sky News and The Guardian claim police are questioning one man on suspicion of conducting an unauthorised tour at the site of the waterfalls.

The UK Foreign Office told the BBC:"We are in contact with local authorities in Ho Chi Minh City [Vietnam's capital], following an incident near Da Lat, Vietnam."

Business Insider has contacted the Foreign Office for further information and will update this post when we hear back.
