Comedian Dave Chappelle celebrates winning the Grammys at Coogee Beach, Sydney

Dave Chappelle hit the beach in Sydney on Tuesday after his polarizing Grammy win for his Netflix special The Closer.

The 49-year-old American comedian was surrounded by several cases of beer at an alcohol-free beach in the eastern suburb of Coogee, but it was not clear if the drinks were for him or members of his entourage.

Chappelle, who is in Australia for his stand-up tour, was seen relaxing under a large cabana with crates of local beer by his side.

Nearby were stacks of glasses of red beer and two skis.

Drinking alcohol on Coogee Beach is prohibited 24 hours a day, with fines as high as A$2,200.

Chappelle didn’t seem concerned about bringing beers to the beach as he relaxed in a chair with his friends while looking at his phone.

Earlier that day, Chappelle arrived on the beach flanked by two bodyguards.

The trio were seen walking down the beach wearing tennis shoes instead of sandals, a rookie mistake for those unfamiliar with the dangers of removing sand from shoes.

Interestingly, the comedian continued to wear sneakers even while relaxing in a beach chair.

The Washington-born funnyman wore a black T-shirt and matching shorts.

Chappelle won Best Comedy Album at the Grammy Awards, which took place in Los Angeles on Monday. His win sparked outrage for featuring jokes aimed at the transgender community.

The backlash included a staged walkout by employees at Netflix’s Los Angeles headquarters, after the streaming giant’s CEO Ted Sarandos defended Chappelle’s jokes as artistic expression and nothing more than an example of the ” creative freedom” of the comedian.

Chappelle was unable to attend the ceremony due to her Australian tour commitments, with performances scheduled for Sydney, Melbourne and Queensland.

Chappelle was performing to a sold-out crowd at the RAC Arena when a commotion involving shouting and cursing broke out on an upper level at the rear of the venue.

No recording of the melee has surfaced because Chappelle has enforced a strict no-phone policy at his concerts for the past six years.

It is understood that he was discussing how he was accosted onstage at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles by an audience member nearly a year ago when all hell broke loose.
