Implement every essential safety step. Individuals with fair skin might receive burns in less than 5 minutes. Stay in the shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest. Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection. Wearing sunglasses with both UVA and UVB protection effectively reduces sun-induced eye damage. Ensure the liberal application and reapplication of a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen after each outdoor activity or swim, and every two hours. Alert! The Sun's UV rays are heightened by the reflection of sand and water.
