Metallica star James Hetfield was seen absorbing the Mediterranean sun with his family on a lavish yacht off the idyllic Greek island of Mykonos.

The rocker, 54, looked in his element as he relaxed on board the luxurious vessel with his wife Francesca and their two daughters Cali, 20, and Marcella, 16, and son Castor, 18.

Proving his more about the peaceful life these days, the music icon relished quality time with his loved ones in the Mediterranean sunshine.

Cheeky James even sprayed his kids with the water from his jet ski during one playful moment, though his offspring had the last laugh when he eventually took a tumble into the water.

When they’re not scoping out new balmy destinations around the globe, James, who is worth an estimated $300million, and his family are based in Vail, Colorado.

The small town, and popular ski resort, lies at the base of Vail Mountain and is the hometown of James’ long-time wife.

While the couple have chosen to live their life relatively out of the spotlight, James has previously admitted that he credits his spouse Francesca for helping him to mature.

The rhythm guitarist – who has maintained total abstinence from alcohol since going sober in 2002 – also previously stated that Fran, 48, helped him to deal with his anger issues more constructively.
