Be proactive in protecting yourself; skin and eyes can be harmed if left unprotected. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation. Limit direct exposure to the Sun during these hours. A wide-brim hat offers excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck. Sunglasses with UVA and UVB protection significantly reduce eye damage from sun exposure. Directly after outdoor activities or swimming, a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30+ should be applied generously and reapplied frequently. Beware! Reflections from sand and water can intensify the Sun's UV radiation.
