Sun - UV Protection
UV rays are strongest between 11 AM and 4 PM and can cause painful sunburns, skin aging, and increased cancer risk.
Protect yourself by using sunblock with SPF 30+ and reapplying regularly. Shade devices, like umbrellas or tents with at least 30+ UV protection, can further reduce exposure.
Stay safe and enjoy the beach responsibly!
TIPS
-
For optimal hydration, we recommend water, low-sugar or no-calorie sports drinks, and coconut water to keep you refreshed and replenished.
-
Wear sun-protective hats, sunglasses, and clothing.
-
Ensure your sunblock and shade device is 30+ rated; 50+ is even better!
*Beware of cheaper shades that notoriously falsely advertise UPF ratings. The shade should be ISO test certified.
Beach Safety Guidelines
- Swim safely, near a lifeguard, with a buddy, and always be aware of your surroundings.
- Drink water and stay hydrated.
- Ensure your sunblock and shade are UV 30+ rated.
- Ensure your shade is beach-safe compliant so it won't blow down the beach.
