The two friends plummeted to their deaths after climbing onto treacherous rocks to take selfies in an isolated beauty spot, Daily Mirror reports.
Aged 12 and 17, the two girls were camping with their families on an isolated beach in Mexico when the tragedy happened.
Police say they wandered off because they wanted to take pictures of the sea and climbed on to rocks at Rosarito in Baja California to take selfies.
One of the girls drowned in the ocean. The other, who was killed by a severe head injury, was found trapped between rocks.
It is thought one girl might have slipped and fallen in and the other tried to save her and got into trouble herself.
They have been named as Arandari Paola García, who was 12, and 17-year-old Mariana 'N' .
Police said the families came from Mesa de Otay in Tijuana.
The alert was raised when the two had been gone for 40 minutes and some of their belonging were found on the top of the rocks.
The local council had recently placed warning signs in the area saying it was unsafe to swim.
A spokesman for Rosarito Red Cross said it appeared the girls went too close to the edge of the rocks to take a selfie and one or both of them slipped.
