She had rented a boat with her 4-year-old son.
The young boy was later found alone on board the boat.
It’s reported he told authorities they’d gone swimming, but his mum Naya never returned to the vessel.
Helicopters, drones and dive teams have all been used in the operation.
The search operation is due to resume "at first light."
