If anyone knows their way around the perfect, steamy swimsuit selfie, it’s Oscar-nominated actress and producer Salma Hayek.

On Monday, the 56-year-old star shared photos from her latest excursion with her 23.6 million Instagram followers. In the first pic in her carousel post, Hayek climbs a ladder out of the ocean, wearing a bright yellow bikini with a knotted front and matching bottoms with ties at the sides as the sun sets behind her.

“Every time I need to feel renewed I jump into the ocean 🌊,” she captioned the post before writing in Spanish and adding the hashtag #oceanlife. Supermodel Cindy Crawford commented, “🔥🔥🔥,” while actress Kerry Washington wrote, “I feel this ❤️.” Jessica Alba added, “🙌🔥🙌.” In just one day, the post has garnered over 1.7 million likes.

In the second slide of the carousel, Hayek posted a video where she is submerged under water and comes up for air. In the next photo, the Frida actress dips her head back to the water, and in the last shot, she poses on the boat as she looks at the breath-taking view.

Back in 2020, the Like a Boss star spoke to PEOPLE for the outlet’s “Beautiful Issue” and reflected on her appearance over her decades in the spotlight, admitting that she used to have insecurities about her image.

“When I look at pictures of me in my 30s or in my 40s, I see myself more beautiful than I saw myself at the time,” she said. “I used to criticize myself so much. Now when I look in the mirror and there are things that I don’t see, I think about how much I’m going to like me in 10 years.”

With summer just around the bend, don’t mind us while we shamelessly practice these bikini poses and pick up a sunny yellow two-piece set of our own.
