Police have identified the person whose body was found on a Hampshire beach earlier this week.
Officers were called to Eastern Parade, Portsmouth, just after 6.30am on Tuesday following reports that the body of a man had been discovered.
A police spokesperson said: "We attended the scene and remained there throughout the day, appealing to the public for help when our initial enquiries were not able to identify him.
"We have now identified the man, who was in his 30s and from Portsmouth, and his family have been informed.
"The death is currently being treated as unexplained and an investigation into the circumstances remains ongoing.
"We would like to sincerely thank everybody who helped to share our appeal and phoned in with information. Your assistance is always very much appreciated."
