Buddies Steve Harvey, Samuel L. Jackson and wife Magic Johnson spent Independence Day with their wives on a luxury yacht moored off the cost of Portofino on the Italian Riviera.

And on Monday the party went out for a delicious dinner to celebrate the national holiday at upscale eatery Da Puny on the harbour.

Showing he’s comfortable on both sides of the camera, Samuel posted a 30-second video on Instagram taken from their yacht, showing the beautiful Italian coastline and the other mega-yachts moored off shore.

He captioned it: ‘Sunday’s view! S’awright… Right?!’

Steve is obviously a fan of the Cleveland Cavaliers basketball team as he proudly posted a snap of him standing next to the Cav’s flag that he hoisted on the yacht’s rigging on Saturday.

The team won the NBA finals on June 20 – their first major pro sports championship since 1964.
