Unearthed social media posts give insight into the final hours before Perth brothers Callum, 33, and Jake Robinson, 30, went missing in Mexico.

The pair, alongside US citizen Jack Rhoad, 30, went missing near the Rosarito and Ensenada region of Baja California on Saturday morning.

The Perth men’s mother Debra Robinson said she had not heard from her sons since Saturday in a public appeal for help on Thursday.

Authorities are especially concerned for Callum, given he is a type one diabetic.

Mexican authorities found a burnt-out white ute, believed to belong to one of the brothers, as well as three abandoned tents south of the Ensenada region.

Local media reported that blood was found in the tents.

Three arrests have been made in Mexico, including a woman carrying one of the brothers’ phones, as well as drugs.

On Saturday it was revealed three bodies had been found in the area where the surfers were last seen.

The remains have not been formally identified.

The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade confirmed they were assisting the Robinson family.
