The group is cruising on the superyacht Aquila, which can be rented for almost $1 million a week.
Magic Johnson is having fun on his yearly trip to Europe with some well-known pals!
About a week ago, the 61-year-old NBA Hall of Famer and his spouse Cookie departed aboard a yacht off the coast of Corfu, Greece, to start their holiday. Soon after, on the island of Zakynthos, the couple’s friends Holly Robinson Peete and her husband Rodney Peete joined them.
Johnson wrote, “A beautiful day in Zakynthos, Greece overlooking the city with two of our best friends on this earth who we love dearly,” as the Instagram description for a picture of the group.
The biggest church in Zakynthos Town, St. Denis (Agios Dionisios) Church, was the one we went to today. On December 17, 1622, Saint Denis, who was 75 years old, passed away. The priests did a special prayer around his tomb.
Since then, Samuel L. Jackson and his wife LaTanya Richardson Jackson have joined Johnson at his celebration, along with LL Cool J and his wife Simone Smith. Tony Calloway and Vanessa Bell Calloway, their spouses, are also present.
After sailing from Greece to Italy, the couples stopped at a number of places, such as Sardinia, Capri, and Sorrento.

Johnson posted pictures of the group dining and drinking around the nation over the long weekend. The legendary Lakers player mentioned in a post that he was “hanging out with my boys in Porto Cervo!”
Video from their excursion has also been shared by the others. LL Cool J showcased the exterior of the enormous yacht the couples are sailing on on Instagram on Tuesday.
The crew appears to be mooring at Porto Cervo and offloading kayaks and jet skis for their enjoyment, leaving the bottom of the ship exposed.
Burgess, which specialises in the purchase and sale of luxury yachts, claims that the 281-foot Aquila yacht is the largest vessel to be built in the United States since the 1930s.
The superyacht has seven guest suites as well as a complete bar, a hair salon, a gym and two massage rooms.
LL Cool J offers his fans a tour of the boat’s interior, including the about 650 square foot deck, in an Instagram video.
A DJ booth, an audiovisual system, a smoke machine, and a light display are all included on the party deck.
The weekly charter rate for the Aquila is approximately $1 million. It cruises the Bahamas and the Caribbean in the winter.
For the past few years, Johnson has started an annual excursion across the waters of the Mediterranean. In 2019, he chartered the Aquila as well. According to TMZ, Steve Harvey is among the regular guests in addition to Jackson and LL Cool J.
