The film was originally produced to be broadcast on the Playboy Channel but Columbia Pictures picked it up and released it theatrically instead. The American Film Institute's catalog states, that according to an article published on March 2, 1984, by The Los Angeles Times, the film was originally produced for the Playboy Channel but the sexual content was deemed 'too soft' for the channel, ''the production was [then] acquired by distributor Columbia Pictures for domestic theatrical release''.
Director Mark Griffiths said of this movie's filming: "The first day of production we shot the title sequence, in which lots of gorgeous girls relax on the beach, listen to music, cover their bodies with tanning oil and generally hang out on the beach and in the water. When we moved locations, we piled five of the girls into a Mercedes 450SL and drove around with the top down. Well, we literally stopped traffic. People waited in intersections and cars made U-turns to get a better look at the girls. And when we had the film processed, even the guys at the lab said they could make a fortune selling tickets to our dailies!".
The movie has its origins in an article published in the November 1983 edition of Penthouse Magazine written by the film's screenwriters Eric Alter and Steve Greene. It told of the true story of some "older rich dudes" who rented a summer beach house and enlisted a popular young surfer to help them meet girls.
The movie was shot along the Southern California coastline, from Malibu to Redondo Beach, over twenty-two days during October and November 1983.
The name of the all-female rock band in the movie was "Diaper Rash" who were played by the real life rock group Vixen, who had a hit in the 1980's with "Edge Of A Broken Heart", and were, according to the film's production notes, touring the USA around the time that the movie was made and released.
