Undertake all critical precautions. Protection from sun harm is vital. Avoid exposure to the Sun and try to stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent, but be aware that parasols or canopies may not offer full protection. Prioritize a wide-brim hat for comprehensive sun defense for your face, neck, eyes, and ears. Sunscreen with a sun protection factor of no less than 30 should be used liberally and reapplied frequently on overcast days, including after every swim or outdoor activity. Beware! Reflecting off water and sand, UV rays are much stronger.
