He did not return as expected and was reported missing by his family on Saturday night.
The search will resume tomorrow morning. Police are actively engaging with the man’s family at this difficult time.
Police still urgently want to hear from anyone in the Firth of Thames area who may have seen something which could assist in locating the missing kayaker.
