A missing US tourist has been found dead on the rocky beach of the small Greek island of Mathraki, according to local outlets.

The man's body was found Sunday on a remote beach on the island west of Corfu by another tourist.

The victim was reported missing on Thursday by his host, a Greek-American friend. 

He was reportedly last seen Tuesday in a local café in the company of two women who have since left the small island.

Details about the man, including a name and hometown, were not immediately available.

Mathraki is a tiny island with a population of just 100 people. The 1.2-square-mile isle is heavily wooded.

Last Friday, news of an unidentified man going missing in Mathraki broke. The man was reportedly last seen Tuesday and had been staying with his Greek-American friend.

The friend reported the man missing Thursday after he returned to his home to find the door of the house open, the light on, and the air conditioning running. But the man, along with his ID and travel documents were gone.

It has not been confirmed whether that man is the same individual as the one whose body was found Sunday.

The confirmed dead American tourist is the latest in a string of disappearances of tourists from Greek islands.

Several remain missing, but two others have been found dead after setting out on hikes or walks in blistering heat.

A 74-year-old Dutch tourist was found by a fire department drone yesterday lying face down in a ravine about 1,000 feet from the place he was last seen a week ago.

Witnesses say he was struggling a bit while walking under the scorching hot sun.

Also last week, Dr. Michael Mosley, beloved British television presenter and MailOnline.com columnist, was found dead on the island of Symi after collapsing on a hike.

His wife said he took the wrong route and collapsed just before reaching a marina, in a spot where his body could not be easily seen.

This past Friday, two French tourists were also reported missing on Sikinos, a somewhat secluded Cyclades island in the Aegean Sea that is home to fewer than 400 people.

The women, one in her sixties, the other in her seventies, departed their respective hotels to meet - and have not been seen since.

Also in the Cyclades, on the island of Amorgos, a search mission is ongoing for a 59-year-old American tourist, who has been missing since last Tuesday.

The man, retired Los Angeles County Deputy Sheriff Albert Calibet of Hermosa Beach, set out on a solo hike in very hot conditions.
