Suki Waterhouse dashes through the waves as she lands in the Caribbean for Christmas
The carefree model is enjoying a sizzling festive moment in the sun with her family as they celebrate Christmas in the Caribbean
Suki Waterhouse is heating up for Christmas in the Caribbean – and cooling off in the ocean.
The 24-year-old model splashed through the waves off the coast of Barbados on Wednesday as she embraced her exotic surroundings ahead of the most holy time of year.
Wearing a camouflage string bikini, Suki looked content and at one with the elements as she took a dip in the sun soaked island.
The star wore a complimentary bandana that was dark navy with green plant details that matched the cammo colours of her bikini.

And shielding her eyes from the glare of the sun – that no doubt bounced off the waves she was wading through – Suki wore stylish square rimmed sunglasses.
With temperatures hitting 27 degrees Celsius on the island this week, it is little wonder that Suki wanted to take a dip to cool down.
Just days before, the model – who famously dated Hollywood actor Bradley Cooper between 2013 and 2015 – had been attending events in London where temperatures have erratically varied between just 4 and 12 degrees.
Cooling off in the surf, Suki had her mum Elizabeth on hand to pass her a towel to dry off after her swim.
And the model looked pretty stylish as she swaddled herself in a sheer green patterned beach wrap following her frolic in the ocean.
Suki – born and raised in London – was joined by younger sister Imogen (known as Immy) and brother Charlie on the island.
Fellow sister Maddie and father Norman also landed on the exotic island earlier this week as they prepare for a festive season in the sunshine.
Laying on a lounge chair, Suki flicked through a document that looked suspiciously like a script – suggestion she could be gearing up to stretch her acting chops in the new year.
The blonde beauty has made no secret of her ambitions in the past – and made her acting debut in 2010 with a recurring role in the short lived BBC comedy drama Material Girl which was cancelled after six episodes following lukewarm reviews and an audience that abandoned it.
Undeterred, Suki pressed on with acting, appearing in the gritty 2012 Brit Flick Pusher (lead by model of the day Agyness Deyn) and a brief appearance in 2014 Rom Com Love, Rosie, and flash appearance in The Divergent Series: Insurgent in 2015.
At the start of this year, she featured in commercial and critical disaster Pride and Prejudice and Zombies – while later in the year it was announced she would be starring opposite Ansol Elgot in a film called Jonathan in 2017.
Speaking of her acting career to back in May, Suki gushed: “I enjoy doing experiences where you don't know how you'll do something, but you have to and I love that feeling after you've done it and you feel like you've done your best. Pushing yourself is important.”
On Tuesday, Suki had been spotted dashing around on the beach wearing a lemon yellow swimsuit with shocking green frill.
She also wore baggy striped shorts as she went for a run on the shoreline and absorbed some rays of sunshine.
