According to the Coast Guard, 53-year-old Jim Repeta planned to swim the two miles from Scripps Pier to the La Jolla Shores lifeguard tower but never made it.
Dunphy said the search was called off around 2 p.m.
"Pending any further developments, we are not going to be searching actively anymore," Dunphy said.
