The girlfriend of Callum Robinson, one of the Australian surfers killed in Mexico, says her "heart is shattered into a million pieces".

In a series of Instagram posts, Emily Howarth paid tribute to her partner.

It comes as authorities in the Baja California state were conducting forensic tests on three bodies found in a well this week, believed to be Callum, 33, his brother Jake Robinson, 30, and American Carter Rhoad, 30.

The parents of the three men arrived in Northern Mexico to identify the bodies, and authorities have since confirmed the families' worst nightmares.

Following the news, Howarth shared a series of photos and videos of the couple online.

"My heart is shattered into a million pieces. I don't have the words right now," she wrote.

"You are one of one. I will love you forever."

Howarth also reposted other tributes from friends.

"The world is cruel and unfair but you were not. Heaven has the best," one person wrote.

"The world lost one of its kindest, silliest and most genuine of souls this week," another said, alongside a photo of the happy couple on a boat.

Howarth shared memories of the couple dancing together, kissing and with friends.

"Truly one of the most beautiful and loving souls. There aren't words. We love you so much," she said.

"I'd give anything for one more koala hug."

Howarth also shared a loving voice memo from Callum, who wished her a good morning and said he was "thinking about you". Howarth said she would be "playing this on repeat".
