Emma Watson stunned the camera back in 2022 when she hit up a beach in Ibiza, Spain. Soaking up the sunshine in the summer of that year, the British actress highlighted her slender figure in a stylish crop top and flowing skirt, opting out of a bikini but nonetheless highlighting her stunning physique. Emma, who tends not to make that many public beach appearances, was seen adjusting her lightweight skirt, with the paparazzi photos showing her looking a little caught off guard. A fan on X reposted Emma's snaps, and it was here that one user noted that the images were rather "public."

Scroll for the photos. Heading across a pebbled beach as she braved soaring temperatures, Emma stunned in a floral Rixo Claire skirt in light shades, adding a skimpy, belly-baring crop top with thin straps.
Looking stylish as she channeled her signature, understated elegance, the Harry Potter star flashed her abs and toned shoulders, concealing her legs while looking trendy in a red pair of espadrille shoes. Keeping practical in her flat shoes, Emma flew the flag for the braless trend, completing her look with a beige tote slung over one shoulder.

Wearing shades while going 100% makeup-free, Emma stunned with a display of her natural beauty, adding shades to shield her eyes from the sun. Emma didn't look particularly camera-ready, and some fans might agree that she looked on the uncomfortable side. The Prada Beauty ambassador was told: "Nice flowing skirt, where next lady?" by one fan. Another noted the array of photos published to document Emma's beach outing.
"Haha that's all the 'public' pics," they said, appearing to think that "more" were of more "interest." Emma is regularly followed by the paparazzi. In August 2020, she made bikini headlines for enjoying a sun-soaked vacation in Positano, Italy, where she sizzled in a teeny two-piece.

The above photos, meanwhile, showed Emma Watson enjoying her Mexico vacation as she relaxed poolside while in Cabo San Lucas.
"She looks great, but these photos are so intrusive," one user remarked as The Daily Mail published the snaps. Over 40 fans agreed when another wrote: "I'm so glad I'm not famous. Just the thought of someone watching me for hours from far away! I know anyone can gain a stalker. But when you're famous, it happens every day. I would go mental. You can't really let your guards down."

A further fan commented on Emma's figure, writing: "She looks great! It's so rare now to see 100% natural people not pulling their bikinis up their armpits! You go, Emma." Emma looked gorgeous as ever in this leggy minidress and heels, finishing her stylish look with a black bow.
