He’s Tourism Australia’s newest ambassador – and after seeing Chris Hemsworth take his genetically blessed family for a dip near their Byron Bay home, who wouldn’t want to visit?

“I spent a lot of my time growing up in the ocean,” the 32-year-
old has mused of his beachy lifestyle.

In fact, Chris and his wife Elsa Pataky, 39, recently listed their luxurious Malibu mansion for $USD6.5 million so they could permanently live Down Under.

And their Aussie lifestyle is shaping up to be pretty ideal.

The couple, who tied the knot in 2010, are living the life in a $7 million pad on the idyllic Seven Mile beach in NSW with their daughter India, three, and one-year-old twins Sasha and Tristan.

“This is the place I want my kids to grow up, the world I want them to be part of,” Chris added, who changed into boardies under a towel in the car park. He’s still an Aussie through and through!

Surf check! Chris scopes out the waves.

His wife Elsa fits right in with Bryon’s boho beach vibe.

Talk about Summer Bay meets Byron Bay.

The Spanish-born actress looked flawless in an akubra hat and a flowing kaftan.

Meanwhile, Chris kept things simple in a pair of black boardies and let his famous muscles do all the talking.

“The biggest thing I’ve learnt having kids is that I now know what love is,” the 32-year-old actor told Sunday Life last year.

Thor blimey, he’s never looked better!

“My husband Chris, I think the thing he likes most about me is I’m very positive and happy,” Elsa told People.

The young couple certainly have their hands full with three little ones.

“Each time you add one it feels like three more. It feels like I have six. They’re non-stop active kids,” Chris has said of his beautiful brood.

The father-of-three is in tip-top shape as he gears up to film Thor: Ragnarok.

Chris Hemsworth on His Children

“It’s weird – my daughter can see Thor and go ‘that’s dad’, or papa or whatever she chooses to call me. But I don’t know if she comprehends what it is – have I disappeared into the box or what?”

There’s nothing more the A-lister loves than a low-key day at the beach with his family.

“This is the place I want my kids to grow up, the world I want them to be part of,” Chris has said of their Aussie upbringing.

“I spent a lot of my time growing up in the ocean,” the Vacation actor has reflected of his childhood.

Elsa and Chris watched on contently as their kids played in the sand.

Chris is the ultimate doting dad.

Proving he’s still an Aussie at heart, the star did the sneaky towel trick to change into a fresh pair of boardies after his dip.

Even on his days off, the father-of-three looks like a Hollywood heartthrob!

Over the Christmas break, Chris and Elsa played host to Liam Hemsworth and his rumoured finace Miley Cyrus as they reunited in Byron Bay.

We’ll next see Chris on the silver screen as Kevin in the highly-anticipated Ghostbusters.
