A search was launched for the missing paddleboarder, with a coastguard helicopter taking to the skies.
A no-fly zone was put in place around Loch Ore Meadows, a popular local beauty spot popular for yachting and open water swiming.
Police confirmed that the body of a male youth was recovered at about 1.20pm on Sunday.
