The body of a 20 year-old man has been found in a lake at Llyn Glaslyn in Eryri.
Emergency services were called out on Saturday evening after concerns were raised about Mahammed Maim Islan from London.
North Wales Police said a man had been reported missing after getting into difficulty in the lake.
His body was discovered by underwater search teams shortly before midday on Sunday.
The coroner for North West Wales has been informed and an inquest is expected to be opened in due course.
Mr Islan's family described him as "a bright and remarkable young man with a promising future ahead of him."
In a statement issued via police, they said: "He was a devoted son, a loving brother, and a cherished friend whose kindness and character touched the lives of all who knew him."
"His untimely passing has left his family, friends, and wider community heartbroken. He will be remembered for the joy he brought to others, the memories he created, and the positive impact he had on those fortunate enough to cross his path."
"Mahammed will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by everyone who knew him. Our thoughts and sincere condolences remain with his family and loved ones at this incredibly difficult time."
"The family would like to thank all involved in the search and recovery of Mahammed."
Llanberis Mountain Rescue Team and the Joint Underwater Search Team were among those involved in the two-day search operation.
Chief Inspector Steve Pawson from North Wales Police said: "Our thoughts remain with the man’s family and friends at this incredibly difficult time."
"The coroner has been informed and enquiries are now underway. I would like to express my thanks to all emergency responders and mountain rescue volunteers who responded to this incident."
