Dive in, the water's lovely: Candice Swanepoel frolics in Caribbean sea on time out from Victoria's Secret shoot
So after the Victoria's Secret team wrapped shooting for the day, the South African model headed straight into the surf.
Wearing a very tiny string bikini, which barely covered her pert derrière, the 23-year-old dove into the Caribbean Sea for a swim.

Ahead of her swim, Candice had been wearing a selection of colourful bikinis from the lingerie firm's new Spring/Summer collection.
Candice has been spending the past few days in the Caribbean shooting the new campaign.
