Rihanna is taking a much-deserved summer vacation and Tweeting enviable photos of her European escapades to fans and followers. The singer has been touring Italy and the French Riviera aboard a luxury yacht with her best gal pals – and some surprise guests.

She has spent a bikini-clad week partying it up while she docked in Capri and Saint-Tropez, jet skiing, tanning and hitting the clubs.

Why see the world, when you got the beach?

It is no surprise that RiRi chose those spots to vacation, as they offer some of the most exclusive and expensive getaways in Europe. Capri’s striking blue waters are the perfect backdrop for Rihanna’s yacht, while Saint-Tropez is home to countless beaches.

Magic Johnson joined Rihanna and her entourage aboard her boat over the weekend for some fun in the sun.

“@MagicJohnson: We had a great time hanging with @Rihanna & her friends on her yacht.” We did too! Thank you

RiRi also Tweeted her daily itinerary of breakfast in bed and sunset views.

Breakfast in bed! Jah Will be done! New day, new experiences, new lessons, 2nd chance at life! Thank You

Marie Claire UK reports that Rihanna’s next move will be to Cannes, home of the famous film festival, and then a tour of the Mediterranean.

The “Where Have You Been” singer is not the only one living it up in paradise – Chris Brown reportedly touched down in Saint-Tropez on Sunday, Tweeting as he made his way to a yacht with Ludacris. It’s not confirmed whether it was Rihanna’s yacht, but did fuel rumors that the exes are back together.

Rihanna’s other ex-beau Drake is also rumored to have paid her a visit while on vacation last week. If all these rumors are true, Rihanna is having an awfully complicated trip to Europe.
