Hardbodies 2 is a 1986 adult comedy movie sequel to the 1984 film Hardbodies. It was directed by Mark Griffiths and featured Brad Zutaut, Fabiana Udenio, James Karen and Alba Francesca. The plot involves two men, Scotty and Rags, and pair of film crews in Greece, assuming the identities of students taking part in Semester at Sea, and derives humor from the use of profanity and nudity.[2] The movie was released by CineTel Films and it has a run time of 88 minutes.[3] Leonard Maltin gave the film a "bomb" rating.[4] The film features the Epirotiki Lines cruise ships Apollon XI and MTS Oceanos (the setting of Semester at Sea), which ran aground in 1989 due to Typhoon Dan and sank in 1991 due to uncontrolled flooding, respectively.

In Australia, the unrelated Miracle Beach was sold under the title Miracle Beach: Hard Bodies II, even though Hardbodies 2 had been released in the country in 1987.
