NSW Police believe a body found in the Tweed River is that of a man who jumped off a boat in the early hours of Saturday morning.

Officers were called at about 2:30am following reports the man had jumped off the boat moored near Chinderah in the state's north.

A search of the river and foreshore began soon after and a body was found in the water nearby at about 2.40pm.

The body is yet to be identified, but officers believe it is the same man.

An investigation into the circumstances of the incident is underway and a report will be prepared for the Coroner.
