Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is at its strongest, and remember that parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Consider a wide-brim hat essential for effective sun defense covering your face, neck, and eyes. Ensure the liberal application and reapplication of a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen after each outdoor activity or swim, and every two hours. Beware! The reflection of water and sand dramatically increases exposure to the UV rays.
