Not all the hotness is on the field, folks.

Candice Swanepoel took to Instagram on Wednesday to show off her amazing bikini bod while on the beach in Rio de Janiero, Brazil, where the Victoria's Secret stunner is currently vacationing during the 2014 World Cup.

The South African beauty posted the pic where she's basking in the sun in a bright pink two-piece, looking like she doesn't have a care in the world as she holds her hands out to the side and tilts her head up to the sky. Swanepoel wears her long locks down in natural waves and sports a pair of aviator shades, keeping her look simple as she enjoys a seemingly blissful day on the beach in South America.

"O Rio de Janeiro continua lindo #copadomundo #worldcup #brasil winter in rio @theminimaleanimale," the 25-year-old model captioned the shot, quoting the country's popular tune which translates to "Rio de Janeiro is still beautiful" (hey, the rest of the view isn't bad either!).

Shortly after, Swanepoel posted another follow-up pic in which she captured a few locals tuning into the game on the beach. "Watching the game AND getting a tan #worldcup#copadomundo #brasil #riodejaneiro," she wrote, clearly enjoying the sunshine coupled with the view of the sexy soccer players.

While Swanepoel may not hail from Brazil, a number of her fellow Victoria's Secret Angels call the country their home, including Adriana Lima and Alessandra Ambrosio.

As Brazilian supermodel Isabeli Fontana previously told Vogue, "The sport is such an expression of our love and our culture. It is, honestly, a religion."

And it looks like Candice is eager to get in on the action!
