Tangerine dream: Kim Kardashian showed off her curves in an orange bikini on a Mexican beach last month

She is famous for her curvy figure, and Kim Kardashian ensured she showed it off to the maximum on a recent holiday to Mexico.

The 31-year-old star sported an eye-catching halterneck orange bikini as she hit the beach with older sister Kourtney and her two-year-old nephew Mason.

But Kim was not content to just spend the day sunbathing - instead trying her hand at bodyboarding in the warm sea.

And she certainly seemed to be taking to the sport like a duck to water, laughing as she cruised in to shore on her bright yellow board.

The star later let her hair down for a stroll down the beach, and looked pensive as she shielded her eyes from the sun.

Kim later joined sister Kourtney and nephew Mason, carrying the little boy as she splashed around in the water.

At one point, she and Kourtney swung delighted little Mason along on the sands.

He was dressed in black swimming trunks and a black hat with orange detail which matched his auntie Kim's swimming costume.

Mother Kourtney meanwhile, dressed her growing baby bump in a black swimsuit and sheer patterned wrap.

She kept herself protected from the sun in a straw coloured hat with black ribbon.

The sisters were in Mexico to celebrate Kourtney's 33rd birthday last month, but were without Mason's father Scott.

However, the sisters were also joined by her friend Robin Antin who also tried her hand at bodyboarding.

Robin, an entrepreneur, actress and choreographer, who founded girl group The Pussycat Dolls, wore a patterned blue and purple bikini to splash around in the surf.

Kim is regularly seen at the gym near her home on Los Angeles, and the results were clear to see as she displayed her washboard stomach and toned legs.

She admitted last month that she is working out up to six times a week to keep her famous figure in shape and has been changing her diet for the better.

Kim wrote via Twitter: 'I've been trying to change my bad eating habits - slow process but its working. I feel so much better! Sugar, dairy & gluten free. HARD!'

She added: 'I will have sweets every once in a while & dairy but this is a huge step for me! Its a lifestyle change but I'm loving it so far!'

Kim clearly appreciated the break, while divorce proceedings from estranged husband Kris Humphries are still ongoing.

She yesterday spent three hours at her lawyer's Los Angeles home.
