He's in Australia promoting his latest film, Snow White and the Huntsman. But Chris Hemsworth took some well-deserved time off this weekend as he enjoyed the surf Down Under. The 28-year-old action hero was all smiles as he spent the afternoon caught in a rip in Maroubra on Saturday.
The Aussie star, from Melbourne, was spotted catching a wave and wiping out early in the day. But Chris soon gained his sea legs back as he charged through the waves in the eastern Sydney beachtown, his blond hair whipping across his face. Grinning ear-to-ear as he paddled out in a wetsuit, it was clear to onlookers it wasn't the first time out on the waters for Chris. The muscled actor, who spent much of his childhood in a little Aboriginal community in the Outback, called Bulman, had only touched down in Sydney hours before hitting the surf.
And it was understandable why Chris could hardly contain his grin in between the rips. He certainly has a lot to be happy about. In addition to catapulting to the top of the list of Hollywood's hottest actors, Chris became a father to his first child, daughter India Rose, just last month. Sadly his absence from London means he will miss his first Father's Day with his little girl and his wife, Elsa Pataky. Chris was seen with Elsa and their newborn baby India in London just last week.
Talking about their choice of name for the little girl, he told E! News: 'It was just a name we liked, I always kind of liked Indie or Indiana for a boy and she liked India. 'We sort of went, "Oh well, whether it's a boy or girl, that will decide." It just seemed to fit.' Fatherhood, he said, is something he's desired for quite a while. 'I've wanted to have kids for a long time, and here it is, and I couldn't be happier,' he said.
