Emily Ratajkowski headed straight from the airport to the beach when she touched down in Cannes for the film festival.

The model and actress didn’t waste any time in hopping on board one of the super yachts on the French Riviera on Wednesday and sharing a series of snaps with her Instagram followers.

Just hours after she was spotting arriving at Nice airport, Ratajkowski was posing in a red bandeau bikini on deck.

Fellow model Bella Hadid was snapped arriving in the South of France on Tuesday night, after becoming the talk of last year’s festival with her daring red carpet attire.
