The Brit lad's body was sadly never recovered, but a single bone, gnawed by a shark, was found some time later and prompted fears Hugo could have been eaten alive.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Tania said: "He was so excited for his life to begin, he wanted to go and have this huge adventure \u2013 and it was all snatched away from him. <\/p>\n
"The last phone call I had with him, I lectured him about driving safely \u2013 I wish I had known instead to warn him about this."<\/p>\n
The horror disappearance of her son prompted the family to fly "straight out to Australia" as locals warned of a "scene from Jaws" unfurling on the beach, The Sun reported.<\/p>\n
She said: "It was like a scene from Jaws \u2013 everyone was enjoying the beach but there was this huge secret that they were hiding about the water.<\/p>\n

"Locals told us it\u2019s notoriously dangerous, but apart from a note at the entrance along with the beach rules, there is nothing that highlights the danger. <\/p>\n
"One man told me that he voluntarily patrols the beach on a Sunday to warn tourists about the water, but he wasn\u2019t able to get to the beach the day Hugo died. He was devastated."<\/p>\n
An Australian coroner has since ruled Hugo likely drowned, with all that was found of the youngster was a thigh bone, which showed signs of shark bites. <\/p>\n
Tania added: "All we had was one femur bone. The funeral felt bizarre, I didn\u2019t really feel anything. It is so hard being so far away from where he is and not knowing what happened in his final moments."<\/p>\n
