We all love the outdoors especially in the summer months. There is nothing better than going to the beach or hopping on a boat for enjoyment during hot summer days. We all need to be aware of what the sun can do to our skin when burning occurs. This causes wrinkles and lines as we get older. Also, not only are you sore from the burn, but you have damaged your skin and from this skin cancer can arise.
There are items that can assist in sun protection for your skin. One main item is a beach umbrella. These are convenient in that they can also be taken on the boat and used for shade cover. Beach umbrellas come in a variety of styles and colors so you can make the one you choose unique to you. In conjunction with beach umbrellas the use of sun block is critical. Beach umbrellas are going to block quite a bit of the sun, but you are not under them at all times. Remember, the higher the SPF value of the sun block you use the more sun protection you will have. It is recommended that an SPF factor of 15 or higher should be used.
Another important sun protection device is the use of sunglasses. It is very important that you protect the UV rays from your eyes because this can cause the development of cataracts earlier in your life than you would have normally have them.
