Elsa Pataky made the most of a tropical escape with friends, sharing photographs of herself in a tiny thong bikini as she continued celebrating her 50th birthday.
The actress posted the holiday collection on Instagram, capturing swims in crystal-clear water, afternoons on the beach and a spectacular sunset enjoyed beside an infinity pool.
In one striking photograph, Elsa waded into the turquoise shallows wearing pale pink bikini bottoms with contrasting black trim and a matching top. Her blonde hair fell in loose waves down her back as a ray glided through the water nearby.
Another image showed her leaning against a tree on the sand, wearing the same bikini beneath white lace trousers. The sheer, flared design featured a scalloped pattern and a drawstring waist, while layered gold necklaces completed her beach look.
Elsa summed up the occasion in her caption: "Another year around the sun, celebrated in paradise with some of my favorite people."
