18. Frankie Avalon

'Beach Party' (1963)

The '60s were the height of beach party movies, complete with surfing, spontaneous dance parties and former teen idol Frankie Avalon. Known mostly for his pipes and that perfect 'do, his fit physique paired nicely with Annette Funicello's girlish figure.

17. Johnny Weissmuller

'Tarzan, the Ape Man' (1932)

Him Tarzan, us swooning. Olympic swimmer-turned-actor Johnny Weissmuller donned little more than a loincloth for 12 'Tarzan' movies. Not technically a swimsuit, some might say, but it was made out of animal hide ... totally waterproof, totally counts.

16. Jan-Michael Vincent

'Big Wednesday' (1978)

When it comes to this 1970s surfer film, "ripped" might refer to: 1) what a surfer just did to a gnarly wave, 2) the washboard abs of star Jan-Michael Vincent, or 3) the future antics of Vincent's co-star, Gary Busey. (We'll take Door No. 2.)

15. Cary Grant

'To Catch a Thief' (1955)

Setting Hitchcock's cat burglar romp on the beaches of the French Riviera ensured two things: beautiful backdrops for the flirting and crime-solving, and plenty of shots of the handsome Grant and co-star Grace Kelly in swim attire. Don't we all love a bad boy?

14. Elvis Presley

'Blue Hawaii' (1961)

It's not just anyone who could sing, act and "surf" the most ridiculously fake wave that ever graced a soundstage while still looking look like the coolest thing on the planet. But that's why they called him the King.

13. Burt Lancaster

'From Here to Eternity' (1953)

Sand and salt water be damned! As Sgt. Milton Warden, Burt Lancaster famously rolled on the beach with his forbidden love, played by Deborah Kerr, in one of the most celebrated smooch scenes in motion picture history. And yes, they had suits on.

12. Leonardo DiCaprio

'The Beach' (2000)

Leonardo DiCaprio is a big-time Oscar-nominated actor, but there was a time when his creative choices were not as praised. Like his Razzie-winning turn in 2000's 'The Beach,' which showed the star mostly shirtless. We refuse to see a correlation.

11. Sean Connery

'Dr. No' (1963)

Daniel Craig wasn't even born yet when Connery (in the very first James Bond film) swapped his tux for a swimsuit to grapple with bad guys at Dr. No's lair -- conveniently located beachside in Jamaica. Thanks, bad guys!

10. Jude Law

'The Talented Mr. Ripley' (1999)

Some of us have seen, um, other pictures of Jude in (and out of) his bathing suit -- but we've spent far more time replaying his turn in 'Ripley,' in which he's so tan and glowing and god-like, we can't blame Matt Damon for being obsessed.
