The postmortems on the bodies of Andrew O’Donnell and Max Wall, the Dublin teenagers who died within 24 hours of each other while on a holiday on the Greek island of Ios, will take place on Wednesday

Separately, a bunch of flowers were placed on the side street where it is believed Mr Wall collapsed down at the island’s port, in the hours after Mr O’Donnell’s body was found.

Dionysios Lagios , who works in a restaurant along the Ios pier during the summer months, said teenage Irish holidaymakers were “fine” customers. Mr Lagios said he had spoken with boys in the group from St Michael’s as they were handing out missing person posters of Mr O’Donnell on Saturday evening. “Our thoughts and condolences are with them,” he said. “The Department of Foreign Affairs is providing consular assistance through the embassy in Athens and two members of An Garda Síochána have been sent now to Greece to provide assistance and we will assist the families in any way that we can.”
