Summer’s not only about being hot, but also about the warm weather. Puns aside, clothes are coming off and bodies are getting wet as we fall into the throws of beach season. So which drool-worthy celebs make it hard to look away? These are the best celebrity beach bods to keep an eye on this summer.
Alex Skarsgard
Alex Skarsgard’s got a body to suck on. He’s best known for his role on HBO’s True Blood as Eric, the sexy Scandinavian vampire whose cold shoulders give us the chills. I doubt those abs come from an all blood diet, but Skarsgard would make a “fangbanger” out of me any day.
Bar Refaeli
Not only was Refaeli a cover model on Sports Illustrated, she is #1 on Maxim’s Hot List this year. She’s Israeli and drop dead gorgeous from top to bottom and I’m not just talking about her bathing suit. It’s not every day you find a girl that dumps Leonardo DiCaprio and you can understand why.
Channing Tatum
You know you have a great body when you get cast as a stripper. Channing Tatum will be the lead in the summer blockbuster Magic Mike which will definitely make its money on movie-goers just there to see him without a shirt on. Cash well spent.
Anastasia Ashley
Classic hottie Anastasia Ashley is a model as well as a surfer. A body shaped by its natural habitat is a beautiful thing, and who doesn’t like a girl who goes to the beach for more than just a tan. I swear wetsuits are some kind of cruel joke.
Cam Newton
Cam Newton is the quarterback for the Carolina Panthers and has obliques cut like marble. His body is bordering on perfection, and it’s making me really wonder why we make our pro football players wear uniforms at all.
Olivia Culpo
Miss USA is giving America a good name. Olivia Culpo, a student at Boston University, has legs for miles and a body you’d never expect to find in New England. #ThatAwkwardMomentWhen Miss Rhode Island looked better in a bikini than Miss Florida.
Keegan Allen
Nothing says sexy like, “I had sex with my half-sister and might have killed your best friend.” No? Well that’s not stopping women from swooning all over Keegan Allen of ABC’s Pretty Little Liars. Now if only we could put Mr. Fitz’s face on his body…
Sarah Shahi
Iranian and Mexican is an odd mix but goes together like rum and coke when it comes to Fairly Legal’s Sarah Shahi. She’s an ex-NFL cheerleader but don’t stare too hard. Shahi is a married woman and has a son, making her our list’s resident MILF.
Matthew Morrison
Glee’s Mr. Schue actually has a chiseled body underneath all those cardigans and ties. I will always remember where I was that fateful night I watched his clothes get ripped off in the Rocky Horror episode. Some may wonder why he beat out Darren Criss, but like, come on. No one pulls off chest hair like Morrison.
Sarah Hyland
Sarah Hyland has a classic look that says ageless beauty. She plays a high school student on ABC’s Modern Family, but don’t worry, she’s legal. Just goes to show you don’t need to have a cut body to look downright sexy.
