Lily James lounged by the beach in a bathing suit.

She later covered up in a gray tank top, baseball cap and sunglasses while posing in front of the ocean. During her time by the water, she indulged in a holiday read: “Souls on Earth: Exploring Interplanetary Past Lives” by Linda Backman.

In the evening, James walked along the sand, stopping for a selfie in front of the moon with her hair blowing in the wind.

She completed her photo dump with several scenic snapshots of the sky, the sunset, birds and clouds outside the window of an airplane.

“Fading into blue,” the movie star captioned her post as Wolf Alice’s “The Beach II” played in the background.
