Summer is in full swing, and while most of us waste away our sunny days in the concrete jungle, would it not be better to be frolicking on a tropical beach somewhere? Until you can squeeze a little time in for fun in St Barths, why not live vicariously and distract yourself with some of the best bikini bods in Hollywood?

Jessica Alba
Jessica (AKA YESsica) Alba just gets better every summer. Can you believe it has been 8 years and one baby since Into the Blue and her body is more rockin’ than ever?

Beyonce
Okay, but really, who didn’t fall “Crazy in Love” with Beyoncé’s body and curves all over again this year when she did her swimsuit collection for H&M?

Rihanna
It appears to have been illegal in most countries since the mid-2000s to do a best bikini bod list without including everybody’s favourite Bajan beauty/ princess of pop/ sometimes hot-mess Rihanna. However, in this case, I think the evidence speaks for itself.

Audrina Patridge
While The Hills may be nearly mummified in terms of pop culture, nobody can deny that Audrina looks as fresh and toned as ever. Way better than FrankenHeidi, that’s for sure.
Miley Cyrus
Hannah Who? Miley Cyrus is all grown-up and looking the part in this black bikini. “We Can’t Stop” looking at her.

Nina Dobrev
Our homegrown, Canadian beauty Nina Dobrev is looking fit and so on-trend with this black and white two-piece. Represent, grrl.

Selena Gomez
Between this and her surging career, the best thing Selena Gomez ever did for herself was dump the Biebs. Ever the Disney princess, she totally rocks this baby blue bikini (or is it a bra set?).

Olivia Wilde
While her bikinis are always eye-catching, Olivia Wilde’s body totally steals the show.

AnnaLynne McCord
AnnaLynne McCord looks more than perfectly at home in this cover shoot for Shape.

Kate Upton
Easily one of the most talked about bodies of the year, Kate Upton has helped make the beach safer for girls with curves everywhere.
