Wearing a simple black bikini, the Fast & Furious star revealed her pancake-flat abs, lean thighs and shapely arms while standing on the green paddle board.

The sculpted star was the picture of health and vitality, going without make-up on for her ocean jaunt, looking naturally gorgeous with her brunette locks soaked and hanging loose over her shoulders.

Without an extra ounce of fat on her body, the stunning star was able to easily navigate the water and switch positions on the small platform.

Flaunt it in Michelle's Eres halterneck bikini

When it comes to swimwear, it seems Michelle Rodriguez likes to stay monochrome. After being spotted on numerous occasions wearing her white Melissa Odabash halterneck bikini, she's now switched to the other side of the color wheel and opted for a similar halterneck style in black.

While holidaying in Sardinia and trying out a bit of paddle boarding, Michelle opted for a sporty black bikini with halterneck top and hipster briefs, featuring a soft texture detail to the edges to give it a point of difference. Michelle's style is from Eres, and although it's available in black (like Michelle's) and lime green through boutiques, it's only the pink shade which is available to buy online. Click the link to the right to be taken to Net-a-Porter where you can buy the exact set in this adorable pink hue right now.

If it's a black style you're keen on however, you might prefer to shop one of the below options - all halterneck styles very similar to Michelle's from the likes of Melissa Odabash, Vix, and another similar style from Eres.

And, using her core strength, she balanced deftly on the board, while using the long oar to help herself cut through the shallow waters near the beach.

While clearly a fan of having active fun while on holiday, she also made sure to chill out a bit, reclining on the paddle board, stretching out her limbs while continuing to soak up the sun.

She later hit the sandy beach, covering her bikini-clad top half with a matching black tank top.

To keep herself as safe as possible, she Michelle was also wearing a bandage on her knee, something she often does as she has no anterior cruciate ligament, meaning her kneecap can often move out of place.

But the star - who is known for her brilliant all-action abilities in her high-octane movies - didn't seem fazed by the joint as she continued her relaxing paddle boarding session.

Michelle has been thoroughly enjoying her time in Europe, and has spent much of the past few months on the sunny shores of the Med.

Her trip with pals to Sardinia comes a few weeks after she was seen in St. Tropez, France on Leonardo DiCaprio's yacht, also partying with her friend Nina Dobrev.

In June, the jet-setting star soaked up the sights in Venice, Italy, after hitting the Cannes Film Festival just weeks earlier.
