The girlfriend of a Brisbane man missing in surf since Saturday has vowed they “won’t stop until we find you” as the search for him continues.

The heartbroken girlfriend of a man missing since Saturday after being caught in a rip has vowed to keep searching for him.

Kyle Schroduer, 21, disappeared while swimming at Coolum Beach on the Sunshine Coast at 4.30pm on Saturday.

An air and water search for the Brisbane man has been under way since he went missing, however, authorities have so far been unable to locate Mr Schroduer.

His girlfriend Samantha Meyers, 20, took to Facebook over the weekend to urge people to “hold your loved ones close”.

“For those who don’t know, Kyle had been swept in a rip yesterday afternoon at Coolum Beach and search and rescue teams are still on the hunt,” she wrote yesterday.

“Please keep your loved ones close!

“We won’t stop ’til we find you; we love you endlessly.”

Ms Meyer’s post attracted over 100 comments from equally devastated friends of the couple who wrote they “didn’t really know what to say” and were “praying for a safe return”.

Queensland Police, Surf Life Saving Queensland and the state’s Coast Guard spent yesterday combing the coastline for any sign of Mr Schroduer.
