The body of Kyle Gonsalves was positively identified this morning by his father Gordon Gonsalves.
Fishermen called in the Coast Guard and reported a body floating in the water.
Gonsalves, 33, went missing on Boxing Day when he went for a swim at a beach in Blanchisseuse.
The Coast Guard retrieved the body in waters near La Fillette Bay off the North Coast. However, Lieutenant Commander Kirk Jean-Baptiste, communications officer for the Coast Guard declined to confirm the exact location where the body was found.
The Coast Guard has retrieved the body and took it to Staubles Bay where the DMO was waiting.
The body will be taken to the Forensic Science Centre, St James.
This puts an end to the three day search for Gonsalves.
