The man who went missing overboard in Nelson's Tasman Bay this evening has been found safe and well.

Police say he swam to shore and walked home. 

Police were called just after 5pm after the 46-year-old fell out of his small boat. 

Five boats, a helicopter, and a team on-land were involved in the search.
