Authorities on Friday released the name of a 20-year-old woman found dead in the surf near the Ocean Beach Pier last week.

Passers-by spotted the body of Victoria Zubkis, address unknown, floating in the ocean about 5:30 p.m. May 28, the Medical Examiner’s Office reported.

Zubkis’ body appeared to have been in the water “for quite some time,” San Diego Fire-Rescue Department Capt. Joe Amador said.

The cause of Zubkis’ death remains undetermined, according to the county agency.
