Ryan Seacrest is enjoying the sand and surf in Miami, Florida this week.

The American Idol host, 49, was spotted relaxing on a lounge chair under a large umbrella while at the beach on Monday.

He showed off his gym-honed physique by going shirtless with his black swim trunks.

Seacrest's girlfriend Aubrey Paige, 27, was nowhere to be seen but he did reserve two beach chairs outside his South Beach resort.

The TV presenter had a bag of ice cold water bottles beside him as he leisurely scrolled through his iPhone.

He is currently enjoying some rare downtime in the lead up to the American Idol live tapings. 

The singing competition show — which moved from Fox to ABC in 2017 — is currently in its 22nd season.

Katy Perry, Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan are on the judges panel but Perry announced earlier this year that season 22 will be her last.

It's been rumored that Miley Cyrus, who has judging experience from her time on NBC's The Voice, is being considered as Perry's replacement.

Seacrest has been hosting American Idol since its premiere season in 2002, which saw Kelly Clarkson win the competition. 

As if American Idol, his KIISFM radio show and annual NYE specials weren't enough to keep him busy, Seacrest will soon replace Pat Sajak as host of Wheel of Fortune later this year.

'I'm so excited. I've been watching it for so many years, like so many people here in this country,' Seacrest gushed to GMA in February.

He called Sajak — who has hosted Wheel Of Fortune since 1981 and announced his retirement in 2023 — a 'legend' who makes the gig 'look so easy and smooth and seamless.'

Seacrest also had plenty of praise for co-host Vanna White, who he called 'the most amazing person.'

Months before it was revealed that he'd be the new Wheel Of Fortune host, Seacrest announced that he would be stepping down as co-host of Live with Kelly and Ryan after a successful six-year run on ABC.

His final episode aired in August and his position was taken over by 'work wife' Kelly Ripa's real-life husband Mark Consuelos. 

He told audiences that he had been considering his exit 'for a long time' and that the decision was 'bittersweet.'

Seacrest recently ventured into the literary world with his first-ever book.

This fall, he will be releasing his children's book The Make-Believers which he co-wrote with his younger sister Meredith Seacrest Leach, 43.

'We're excited to share that two of the most imaginative people we know, Ryan Seacrest and Meredith Seacrest Leach, are tag-teaming
