Again and again, he Googled how to get back to his hostel before going deeper into the bushland, at times appearing to run or walk quickly. Finally he reached the waterfront and walked up the sand a spot known as Cosy Corner beach, at the foot of Byron Bay Lighthouse, around midnight. Once there he switched off his location services, sent relaxed messages to family and friends, before his phone suddenly switched off at 1:02am and he was never seen again. Google data has revealed the treacherous route Theo Hayez, 18, (pictured with his girlfriend) took after he was he was kicked out of a local bar by security in Byron Bay, northern NSW, for appearing drunk Ms Hayez revealed how in the wake of his disappearance, she had retraced his steps in daylight and at night to try to work out what had happened to him. And she insisted there was no way he would ever have made the trip alone, especially deep into the bush. 'It was scary,' she told the inquest. 'I could see him starting the walk but he would probably have stopped once he started to go into the deep bush land and be like, that's not safe for me to do by myself.' Ms Hayez insisted the engineering student-to-be was an expert user in Google Maps and would never have got lost. Theo Hayez (pictured, right, with a friend) was spotted on CCTV at a bottle shop earlier on the evening he disappeared The pair had been travelling Australia together she said and would always use Google Maps everywhere they went to navigate even short trips around Melbourne. 'Obviously Melbourne is a big city, and we didn't know where to go and how to get to it,' she told the inquest. 'We would use Google Maps for everything - to see the tram if it was walking distance or everything, so it would be like constantly using Google Maps. 'He would be better at it than me.' Theo Hayez sent his last messages on his phone from Cosy Corner Beach, near the base of cliffs below Byron Bay lighthouse (pictured) She said Theo would be the navigator of the pair and she never saw him make a mistake. If the blue dot was slow to update when the app first started to navigate, she admitted, he could however set off on the wrong direction at first. 'That happened when we didn't have a good connection or if he just reopened Google Maps or stuff like that, but it wasn't for a long time and it didn't get us lost,' she said.
