A SEARCH for a 22-year-old surfer still missing off the coast of Western Australia has been switched from rescue to recovery.

Police say hopes are fading of finding the body-surfer alive. He is one of three surfers who ran into trouble in a vicious rip on Saturday at Margaret River's Redgate Beach, 280km south of Perth.

One surfer died on Saturday. He was a 29-year American visitor, WA police said. He has been named as Ian Bradley Vincent and his family has been notified of his tragic death.

A third man was able to reach safety, but his details are yet to be confirmed.

A significant marine and air search continued all day on Sunday at the Margaret River beach.

A helicopter, three volunteer marine rescue vessels and two jet skis scoured the waters in a bid to find signs of the 22-year-old.

State Emergency Services (SES) personnel were also helping with the search.

WA Police said resources would be scaled back on Monday, as hopes all but disappeared of finding the missing man alive.

Rescuers managed to reach Mr Vincent on Saturday afternoon, but they were unable to revive him.
