Princess Olympia of Greece enjoys an eclipse viewing party in her bikini at their vacation home in the Bahamas

A day of (no) sun and sea! Princess Olympia of Greece enjoys an eclipse viewing party in her bikini as her family soaks up the end of summer at their vacation home in the Bahamas

  • Olympia and her family visit their home on Harbour Island several times a year
  • The 21-year-old wore a pink strapless bikini and protective glasses to view the eclipse while laying out on a dock
  • Her family hosted a number guests for the event, including Princess Eleonora of Yugoslavia and several of Marie-Chantal's close friends
  • Olympia was recently in Mykonos with her family, following some time in Yorkshire, where she celebrated her brother Achileas' birthday
Princess Olympia of Greece had an especially scenic spot to watch the solar eclipse on Monday: her family's luxe vacation home in the Bahamas.
After their usual summer trip through the Greek isles, Olympia, 21 (whose paternal grandfather, King Constantine II of Greece, was deposed in 1973), and her family headed to their home on Harbour Island last week.
There, they hosted friends for an eclipse viewing party, and were dutifully prepared with a few pairs of special glasses to wear, as well as a telescope.

Olympia and her family head to their home on pink sand beach-trimmed Harbour Island at least once a year.
This summer, they seemed to recreate their 2016 itinierary, first spending some time in Mykonos and then Yorkshire before flying to the Bahamas.
On Friday, Olympia took to Instagram to upload a shot of herself sitting on a dock in front of crystal-blue waters. She wore a pink knit one-piece, matching sunglasses, and an anklet while nursing a beer in the scenic spot.
Later, Olympia shared a photo of her brother Alexios walking around town, followed by another picture of the pair with brother Achi on the lawn of their home.

The princess' mom, Marie-Chantal, also shared a picture of the young socialite, showing Olympia in a pink bikini with a pair of D&G slides off on the side of her blanket.
Olympia held a pair of eclipse glasses to look at the sun, one of a couple pairs that seem to have been passed around within the group.
Princess Eleonora of Yugoslavia and her family were also visited and enjoyed the event with her fellow deposed royals.
The group stood together on a dock, the women in sundresses and the men in swim trunks, with most wearing regular sunglasses for the celestial event.

The family appears to have a few other visitors in town as well, including Vogue UK editor Nona Summers.
Olympia, who grew up in London and will be starting her junior year at New York City's Parsons School of Design this fall, told Hello! in 2016 that she's incredibly close with her family.
'I think I'm closer with my family than I was before, because I FaceTime them all the time! I FaceTime them when they're all having dinner and I'm, like, walking to school. We're always speaking,' she said. 'I'm just so close to my family and my brothers — Princes Constantine, Achileas-Andreas, Odysseas-Kimon and Aristidis-Stavros.'
