Halle Berry took advantage of an unseasonably warm December afternoon to take her daughter Nahla to the beach, and Breaking Celebrity News has the pictures!

Mother and daughter played along the surf, with Nahla seeming to especially enjoy seaweed, which got several big laughs out of Halle.

Halle left her hunky boyfriend Olivier Martinez home for the excursion.

And in her cut-off shorts, bikini top and barely-there cover-up, Halle was definitely the hottest mom in Malibu.
