The search for missing Aurukun man Adam Yunkaporta has entered its third day, with police and community volunteers continuing their efforts from early Monday morning.

A group of 25 people, including police officers, State Emergency Service (SES) personnel, and local volunteers, commenced the search at 7am on February 3.

The tight-knit community has rallied together in an effort to locate Mr Yunkaporta, 60, who was reported missing on February 1.

Authorities have been conducting foot patrols near the Aurukun boat ramp, covering areas both north and south.

A Queensland Police spokesperson confirmed that search operations begin at 7am daily and continue until nightfall.

Drones and helicopters have been deployed to assist in locating Mr Yunkaporta.

A wildlife ranger has also joined the search alongside emergency response teams.

At the time of his disappearance, he was wearing black shorts and a blue fishing shirt featuring a barramundi image.
