Zac Efron and his Aussie girlfriend have been spotted enjoying a beach day in an affluent Sydney suburb.
Zac Efron and Vanessa Valladares appear to be enjoying their stint in Sydney, with the couple spotted enjoying a relaxing beach weekend.
The 33-year-old Hollywood actor and 25-year-old Valladares, a waitress from Byron Bay, were photographed getting smoothies in the affluent Vaucluse area on Sunday, before making their way to a secluded beach.
Valladares, who is thought to have began dating Efron mid-last year, went for a dip in the water while The Greatest Showman star watched on from the shore.

She was wearing a black cut-out one piece swimsuit, while Efron cut a casual figure in a cap, sunglasses, T-shirt, shorts and thongs.
It comes after the couple was filmed last week walking through the streets of Paddington wearing face masks, where an onlooker said they helped an Australia Post worker who dropped parcels on the ground.
It is thought Efron has set up a home base in Byron Bay with Valladares, after touching down in Australia in March last year.

Efron, who has been filming the Stan movie Gold in South Australia since December, is thought to be considering making Australia his permanent home.
He listed his $7.8 million mansion in Hollywood in December, which he bought seven years ago for $5.8 million.
He’s also signed on to star in a local project headed by his friend and radio host, Kyle Sandilands.
Sandilands explained that his company, King Kyle Group, had recently gone into business with a company that organises live pets for children’s entertainment.

Speaking to Mediaweek, Sandilands said: “Zac Efron is going to be one of the voices, Dannii Minogue will be one of the voices, I’ll do one of the voices.”
Efron’s Aussie romance began at the Byron Bay General Store where Valladares was waiting tables and making coffee.
It is understood Valladares’ boss first encouraged the pair to get to know each other, believing they’d hit it off.
