It comes six months after the Belgian teen was last seen leaving a Byron Bay bar.
A police theory which believes Theo wandered towards the coastline and fell into the water has been rejected by the Hayez family.
Volunteers continue to search the area.
If you need someone to talk to, phone Lifeline on 13 11 14.
The body found is not Theo.
