Summer/Beach

Looks like Jersey Shore cops went way overboard off the boardwalk while patrolling the beach this week ... putting an unsuspecting surfer in a chokehold over his lack of proper paperwork.

California surfer Liam Mahoney's visit to Belmar Beach Tuesday was not laid-back, as a new video making the rounds online shows him getting into a heated confrontation with police after he failed to display a beach access badge on his wetsuit.

Liam and a woman in his group tried to explain to the officers that he did, indeed, have a badge required to access the beach -- it was located on his backpack nearby -- but the situation escalated quickly.

Kylie Jenner is reminding you summer isn't quite over, posing for a series of spicy pics ahead of what she calls ... her "sexiest" swimwear ever!

The reality TV star revealed new swimsuit shots Monday and Tuesday for her upcoming Khy satin swimwear line -- and this campaign's way different from pushing lip kits.

Check out the pics ..KJ's poolside rocking a turquoise string bikini, and in another, she's lounging in front of a palm tree wearing a silver monokini -- both pics showing off her fit physique.

Rihanna's getting rowdy down in the Caribbean ... downing shots with some friends at a beach bar in Barbados -- and, lifting a glass to her one-year-old son.

The singer-songwriter hit Thunder Bay Beach Bar on the small island country ... pulling up with a trio of friends to the spot this weekend and ordering tall shots of what looks like tequila, limes at the ready of course.

The four ladies pose for a pic before RiRi tells everyone to put their glasses in the air ... all while a worker at the bar films.

Now THIS is a storm surge -- more than 100 pounds of coke washed up along Florida's shores in the wake of Hurricane Debby.

While Debby did not make a direct hit on the Sunshine State, she did stir several narcotics stashes that ended up on or near Florida beaches -- including 70 pounds of cocaine packages in the Florida Keys village of Islamorada.

Authorities say a total of 25 packages -- valued at more than $1 million -- were found by a good Samaritan ... and a week later another batch of the coco turned up near Everglades City.

This week's summer hot shots is coming from the sun-baked streets of Los Angeles where fitness guru Denetra Blackshear ditched the gym attire and got hearts racing wearing a super string bikini while doing a photo shoot in the City Of Angels.

When this health nut isn't motivating people in person and with her online training ... Denetra loves watching anime, traveling the globe to exotic locations ... and even was a hip hop dancer in videos for big names like Pharrell Williams, Kid Ink ... and even Daft Punk!

Talk about an instant crush!

Mauricio Umansky's clearly rebounding from his Netflix show getting the axe ... hitting a beach in Mexico with his new GF -- and going for a PDA-packed dip.

The reality television star hit a beach at One&Only Mandarina, Mexico ... a resort outside Puerto Vallarta -- stripping off his shirt and walking around the beach with Nikita Khan, clad in a bikini.

The two head for the shore, taking in the expanse of the Pacific Ocean before hopping in and going for a quick dip.
