Melanie Griffith Spotted Enjoying the Sun and Sea during Beach Vacation
Hollywood icon Melanie Griffith is in her late 60s but doesn't look a day over 50. She recently graced the coast of Mexico, stunning in a green swimsuit by the beach.
Melanie Griffith displayed her ageless beauty, capturing the attention of onlookers and admirers alike. The 66-year-old flaunted her radiant spirit as she enjoyed the sun in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Donning a stylish olive green one-piece swimsuit from Bond-Eye Swim, Griffith walked the beach and waded by the sea.
Her swimwear, featuring a scoop neckline and low back, complemented her fit body. The star kept her short blonde locks down and eventually soaked her hair in the salty waters during the Mexico vacation. Paparazzi photos of the "Hawaii Five-0" star circulated the internet, with outlets admiring her incredible look.
Griffith, a staunch advocate for fitness, puts in the work to maintain a good figure at her age. She previously shared her thoughts on staying in shape through an Instagram post showing her workouts.
"I work out with @gunnarfitness 3 times a week, sometimes more if he hasn't kicked my ass too hard. I'm determined to stay fit at 63," she revealed in 2021.
However, the actress's journey to staying fit and healthy was not without challenges. In 2018, Melanie Griffith, who has been talked about for undergoing plastic surgery, courageously faced and conquered skin cancer and openly shared her experience on social media.

Acknowledging the scare of having cancer removed from her nose, Griffith wrote, "Bandaged again after having dermabrasion, the final step to fix the now removed basil cell skin cancer. If any of you have it, get it fixed." She also advised her followers to use sunscreen and be careful with sun exposure.
According to People, Griffith opened up about her perspective on dealing with skin cancer and shared candid insights, emphasizing the relationship between her career and her face.

"It's a scary thing when you're an actress and you depend on your face for work," she revealed. "But I realize I have to put a Band-Aid on it, and it's fine. I just look like a dork."
She also noted that being an older celebrity in Hollywood is a different experience, although not necessarily negative. Griffith is also more open to doing Broadway plays as that side of the industry is kinder to senior actresses. Regardless of where Griffith displays her talents, she will always shine like the star she is.
