Johansen is clearly making the most of her long-awaited break from football alongside boyfriend Haaland.
She could be seen wearing a pink bikini as she zipped across the waves using a water jet.
The couple have been soaking up the sun on a yacht between trips to the coast.
Johansen also showed off a snug tropical gradient dress, giving fans all the angles of her holiday wear.
The pair also met up with Erling's businessman brother Astor Haaland and his girlfriend, posing for a sunny picture together.
The Haaland family grew recently when Johansen gave birth to the couple's first child in December of 2024.
Having a child clearly hasn't slowed down their jet-setting lifestyle in the months since the birth.
Their summer travels have already taken them to Haaland's native Norway, alongside spells in Ibiza and Rome.

Johansen and Haaland were finally free to holiday this year after Manchester City were dumped out of the Club World Cup by Al Hilal in early July.
It was something of a lacklustre season for Haaland's Manchester City as they failed to win a trophy for the first time in years.
This was extended into a time traditionally reserved for rest and relaxation due to Manchester City's inclusion in the Club World Cup in the US.
But this participation came to a shocking early end, allowing the Norwegian all-time top scorer to take his leave.

Kelsey Parker shares family holiday photo and says it's ‘just what we needed' after she tragically lost baby at 9 months
KELSEY Parker has shared a photo from her family holiday and said it's 'just what we needed' after tragically losing her baby at 9 months. The podcast host's third child, Phoenix Parker-Lindsay, was stillborn shortly before his due date. 4 Today, Kelsey, 34, shared a photo of herself with boyfriend Will, while holding her children Aurelia and Bodhi. The family were pictured looking out towards a harbour, with a mountain in the background, while dressed in summer attire. And Kelsey simply penned to fans: 'Exactly what we needed 💛 Thank you @jet2pics for making it so easy. X.' Fans flooded the comments to tell Kelsey it was 'nice to see her' on social media, with others sending the star love following the tragic loss of Phoenix. Since his death, she and partner Will Lindsay have taken time away to grieve privately as a family. Kelsey had Aurelia, as well as four-year-old Bodhi, with her late husband Tom Parker, who died of glioblastoma, a form of brain tumour, in 2022. At the end of last month, the star wanted to make sure her little girl knew how special she was, and posted a heartbreaking video montage of Aurelia growing up – starting in the arms of The Wanted star Tom as a tiny baby. Kelsey wrote alongside the video: "Aurelia means 'The Golden One' and that's what you are 🤍 you've been through so much my darling daughter, but you're the most precious little girl any mummy could wish for. "I'm so happy we got to spend this weekend celebrating your birthday and turning another year older. Devastated Kelsey Parker announces tragic death of baby who was 'born sleeping' just a week before due date "I'm beyond proud of you and the amazing young woman you're growing up to be." Kelsey shared the devastating news that her son, Phoenix, was still born by posting a poem to fans, "For Phoenix. Born sleeping, forever loved." The phoenix bird symbolises immortality, resurrection and life after death. She added next to the poem: "Before I receive an influx of lovely messages and heartfelt well wishes, I want to just say that I truly appreciate everything you are all going to say and share. "But with the news being so raw, I would really like to ensure that we as a family are given space and time to process this devastating and earth-shattering news. "I love you all and thank you for your understanding and space." Phoenix was her first child with boyfriend Will, whom she started dating last September. At the time, Kelsey said she knew late husband Tom would 'send the right man for her.' They announced they were expecting in January. 4

Sophia Loren's son reveals how his mother saw husband Carlo Ponti - who met legendary Italian star when she was 15 while he was 37 - as a 'father figure'
Sophia Loren's son has described how her husband Carlo Ponti - who was 37 when he began an affair with the legendary 15-year-old actress in 1950 - acted as a 'father figure' for his mother. Speaking to The Times, director Edoardo Ponti, 52, spoke of the how the 22-year age gap affected the budding star, who is now 90. 'In addition to the romantic love and the attraction, he provided that sense of security, that sense of protection, which my mother was always in want of,' he explained. Sophia, who grew up not knowing real real dad that well, was brought up just outside Naples - but aged around 16, her mother Romilda relocated them to Rome and tried to track him down for financial support. He refused. But whereas Romilda decided to make her way back, Sophia decided to set up camp in the Italian capital. 'Imagine today a 16-year-old daughter telling her mother, "I'm not leaving. You go, I'll stay",' Edoardo continued. 'I mean, it's absolutely unthinkable. Every character that my mother has built on screen comes from the fabric of her trauma - there's no question. She understood that poverty for an artist is gold, because adversity, not knowing where your next meal is going to come from, all of those elements create such a wealth of inner life. '[She understood] the humility of being in the service of something, her characters, her directors. She has never been the diva. She's always a team player.' Sophia has previously recounted meeting her husband at a small town beauty pageant. And in excerpts of her memoir Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow: My Life - shared in an issue of Closer Weekly, the actress had also recounted similar sentiments of feeling a paternal fondness for her late husband. 'By that time whenever I went out it was with Carlo,' she reminisced in her autobiographical book. 'True, he was married and we had to be careful, only later would our fondness turn into love.' He helped launch her career as a sought-after star when the Italian film producer casted her in some of her first starring roles in Anna and I Dream Of Zorro. Upon meeting him, Sophia knew Carlo would be someone in her life forever. 'I was content to be lucky enough to finally have someone beside me who knew how to speak to me, who could give me advice, who supported me in the parts I chose, which is crucial when an actor is just starting out,' she said. Sophia added: 'I was trying to get ahead but without taking any false steps, and knowing that Carlo was on my side was a huge help. There was something fatherly about his presence, too, and I'd never had a real father.' 'He gave me a rootedness and stability that kept me grounded, while the world around me seemed to swirl dizzyingly, excitingly.' Two years later the couple welcomed their first child Carlo Ponti, Jr and another son, Edoardo, in 1973; their eldest is an orchestra conductor while the latter is a director whose debut film Between Strangers also starred his mother During their early years of courtship, he was still married to first wife Giuliana Fiastri. But during the summer of 1954, both Sophia and Carlo knew they were destined to be. 'It was there, while making Woman Of The River, that we finally understood we'd fallen in love. Our intimacy had turned into love,' she wrote. He had proposed marriage to Sophia in 1957, prompting for a divorce from Giuliana which was forbidden in his native country at the time. However, Carlo could not deny his strong feelings for the sex symbol and married her by proxy after obtaining annulment documents in Mexico. As a result Sophia and Carlo would have wound up on the hook for concubinage and bigamy in their native country and so they annulled their marriage in 1962. The pair eventually worked out a deal with Giuliana whereby they all moved to France and obtained citizenship there. Giuliana gave Carlo a divorce under French law in 1965, and the next year he remarried Sophia whom he stayed with until his death in 2007. Two years later the couple welcomed their first child Carlo Ponti, Jr and another son, Edoardo, in 1973; their eldest is an orchestra conductor while the latter is a director whose debut film Between Strangers also starred his mother. Sophia has four grandchildren and told Closer she regularly keeps up with them, chatting daily with her family on FaceTime during lockdown. 'My approach to life is very simple,. Enjoy all the good news that my children tell me about their lives,' shared the Marriage Italian Style star. Sophia, who lives in Geneva where she gave birth to both her sons, said: 'The beauty of my grandchildren fills me with joy although they are far away in California.' A few years ago she told the New York Times that what she enjoys about life in Switzerland is that 'It's calm. When you live in a big city like Rome or like New York, there's so many things going on and the streets and the cars. Here, it's a really very peaceful place. And then, of course, it's the center of Europe.' In the Times article however, Edoardo also revealed that his brother often complained is mother 'wasn't like the others' at school drop off, despite the star wearing jeans to be as lowkey as she could. Sophia drew international acclaim for the 1960 film Two Women which was also about the ravages of World War II in her native Italy. Her performance in the Vittorio De Sica movie made her the first person ever to earn an acting Oscar in a language other than English. However she has not appeared onscreen in a feature film since Nine, Rob Marshall's 2009 movie adaptation of a Broadway musical of the same name. Nine was based on the seminal Italian movie 8 1/2 directed by Federico Fellini whom Sophia never worked with despite the two being stars at the same time. She has kept working since Nine - she dubbed a role in Italian for the 2011 Pixar movie Cars 2 and has appeared in a short film. A decade ago she also played her own mother Romilda in the Italian miniseries My House Is Full Of Mirrors, based on a book by her sister Maria Scicolone, who once spent a decade married to Benito Mussolini's jazz pianist son Romano.

Why cruising is the most accessible way to travel overseas
It was day one of our week-long cruise to the Norwegian fjords, and barely 90 minutes since we'd handed over our passports at P&O Britannia's accessible check-in quarters, we were already in our cabin. 'How fast was that?' I enthused to my partner, Paul, a wheelchair user since a spinal injury at the age of 21. He nodded enthusiastically, still thrilled that he'd been able to bring a second back-up chair, and by the generously sized wet room which had greeted us. We cracked open our bottle of champagne – part of the 'one bottle of wine per person' we were permitted to bring with us – and settled into our accessible cabin on deck 11, preparing to spend the following day at sea cruising along the inky blue waters off North West England. We used this day to explore the ship, finding that it was – on the whole – wonderfully easy to get around, with plenty of other wheelchair- and scooter-users amongst our fellow passengers, and specific tables at the buffet and lifts between floors reserved for wheelchair users (though not everyone observed these rules). Satisfied that our on-board experience would be a pleasant and easily navigable one, our attentions – and anxieties – turned to whether the same would be true of the various shore excursions ahead. We needn't have worried. P&O had clearly given much forethought to the ports which would prove most accessible for disabled passengers, with each destination offering step-free and (mostly) flat roadways and paths, allowing us to explore each without incident. Amongst our stops were the cities of Stavanger and Kristiansand – both delightful and very scenic – but it was the small farming village of Skjolden which really stood out. Gliding up the calm, crystal clear Sognefjord, we passed tumbling waterfalls and hillsides dotted with pretty wooden homes – then, as we neared the shore, we heard the bells of mountain sheep ringing as farmers toiled their lands nearby. Having disembarked, we followed a beautiful accessible tarmac road which wound around the feet of rugged, snow-capped mountains – a stunning place, and everything we'd hoped a cruise around Norway would offer. We stopped for a picnic at a little bench by the water, taking it all in as other cruisers – on foot, in wheelchairs or on scooters – passed by, deciding which of the various pathways ahead took their fancy as mountain goats and highland cows watched from the nearby fields with interest. That evening, we returned to the ship and watched the sun set from the rear deck, the sky and still waters streaked with the same deep hues of burnt orange and bruised purple. But it wasn't all plain sailing. As we'd been supping our champagne on that very first day, a wheelchair disaster of sorts had been unfolding below us on deck seven. Fellow passenger Alan Rogers, who has multiple sclerosis, had gone for some fresh air on the rear deck in his P&O-approved chair. While rolling himself down a too-steep ramp, he had come crashing out of it and was left lying on deck, helpless and in pain. Paul had tried to access the rear deck via this same ramp some days later, and also found it much too steep, saying that he'd needed two strong men 'to lift up the wheelchair and get me out'. When asked, P&O told us that their safety officer has no issues with the ramp, having recently been aboard the Britannia and found it all in order and within their specifications. 'But why don't they consult the wheelchair users who need these facilities?' says Alan. 'And if the ramps can't be fixed, what about a buzzer to call staff to hold open doors and to hold the wheelchair as you go through them?' P&O's newer ships, he told us, are better on this score. 'My first trip with my wife, Rachel, was on the Iona,' he says of another of the line's ships, launched in 2020. 'It was brilliant, with a decent-sized wetroom and electric buttons to press for the doors and balcony. I don't fly any more, and though cruises are definitely more accessible than a flight, I'm still limited in what I can go on.' He hopes that by speaking out, P&O might be prompted to adjust the ramps on the older ships to ensure the safety of other passengers. Nevertheless, overall Paul and I were impressed. Thanks to the all-encompassing nature of a cruise, this was the first holiday I had successfully organised myself, and the price – £899 per person, including all meals – had been manageable on my part-time salary. This approach also meant that we had been able to entirely avoid flying (which, with Paul's wheelchair and my own mental illness, which makes me claustrophobic in airports, is often an ordeal) or renting a car, but still get right into the heart of the rugged fjords and snowy mountains in all their beauty. Cruising is still a welcome lifeline for many wheelchair users who want to travel – but with just a few small tweaks, it could be even better.
