Natalie Portman Wears Plunging Bathing Suit for Beach Day in St. Barths

Natalie Portman is soaking up the sun in vacation!

The 44-year-old Oscar-winning actress rang in 2026 while enjoying a day at the beach on Thursday (January 1) in St. Barths in the South of France.

Natalie sported a plunging, navy bathing suit as she went for a walk along the beach before cooling down by going for a dip in the Caribbean Sea.

Natalie had a very busy 2025 summer filming her upcoming Netflix movie Good Sex with co-stars Rashida Jones, Mark Ruffalo, and Role Model.

Written and directed by Lena Dunham, Good Sex “centers on a pragmatic couples therapist named Ally (Portman), who after spending a decade in a failed relationship and now turning 40, reluctantly dips her toe back into the New York dating scene. But, per Netflix’s logline, Ally gets more than she bargained for when she meets two men, one in his twenties and one in his fifties, who show her there is no set formula for good sex.”
