Nicole Richie and Joel Madden hit the beach in Hawaii yesterday to soak up some of those pre-New Year's rays. The new mom looked absolutely fantastic in her little red bikini. The duo spent some time there last year where Nicole showed off her pregnant belly in a green bikini [1], and now it's time to introduce Harlow to one of their favorite spots. They were also joined by Benji, who seems like a welcome third wheel these days. Nicole tried out paddle surfing [2] and kayaking but didn't seem to last long exercising and who can blame her when there's so much beach lounging to be done.
