Bündchen is seen with her hair wet, apparently coming out of the water. The images show her basking in the sun and sharing a laugh with a fellow model.
Bündchen's love of the ocean and the water is obvious, with her enjoying various water sports and beach days. Over the past couple of years, her home has been in Miami, where she spends her weekends aboard her yacht and her days on outdoor walks and trips to the beach.

"My dream was to raise my kids here. I didn’t get to be here as much as I’d like, but now I’m bringing them more often," she said. “If I never went to another city again, I’d be perfectly happy."
In 2023, she was photographed surfing in Costa Rica, where she had traveled to visit her parents and family. The images captured her talents with the surfboard, showing that her skills go beyond a photoshoot. Bündchen was photographed atop her board, surfing some waves as she wore a black bikini. She was joined by her daughter Vivian as the two enjoyed the water and cuddled by the water.
Bündchen's profound connection to Costa Rica

"I'm in a different place in my life," she said in an interview with CBS News. "I'm able to choose more of what I want. I think before I was more surviving, and now I'm living, which is different."
Bündchen found Costa Rica, her "home away from home," after deciding to change her life and embrace a healthier lifestyle. She's opened up about her 20s and how she began to feel anxiety over the pressures in her life. "And then, I started being in studios, and I felt, like, suffocated. I lived on the 9th floor, and I had to go up the stairs because I was afraid I would be stuck on the elevator, and I'd be hyperventilating," she said.
Nowadays, she embraces a healthier lifestyle, movement, and nature on most occasions, and a careful approach to the foods and elements that she introduces into her body.
