Singer Britney Spears donned a cheeky sailor hat, took to the high seas and went cruising - all in her lunch break!

The pop princess found her sea legs and rented a private yacht for an hour's break from her daily dance rehearsals.

With sons Sean Preston and Jayden James in tow, Britney, dressed in a pink sundress, boarded the yacht in California's Marina Del Rey and soon stripped off to reveal a sexy pink and green polka dot bikini.

The recently divorced star, who was reported to have handed $1million in a divorce settlement to ex-husband Kevin Federline, seemed relaxed as she enjoyed the one hour cruise, drinking cocktails and sunbathing as the yacht cruised in Marina Del Rey, California.

Twenty-five year old Britney has had a troubled few months, including a stint in rehab, following the bizarre spectacle of her being filmed shaving off her hair.
