Emergency services were called to the west coast beach, where the police Eagle helicopter subsequently spotted the body wedged between rocks on the water line, in rough water and terrain.
Three lifeguards and a police officer on an inflatable rescue boat recovered the body.
A post-mortem examination will take place to identify the body.
A fisherman went missing at the beach six days ago.
The Eagle helicopter, search and rescue crews and surf lifesavers have been searching for the man since, but have not found him.
