Secrets for Avoiding the Vacation Sunburn

We have all seen the people who come back from vacation and look like giant lobsters. Or maybe you have been one of those people? Follow our tips to make sure you don’t become the walking punch line at work.

We know you are not going to stay out of the sun while on vacation but if you don’t want to be sunburned you may want to. Alright, we know for a fact that it is not going to happen, so at least try to stay out of the sun during peak hours. Those peak hours are 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. Although you may think you want to spend the afternoon in the sun, you may want to rework your plan. You can visit a museum or do some shopping, maybe even grab a nice lunch during these hours.

Another way to avoid sunburn is to make sure you properly and adequately apply sunscreen. Also make sure you are applying the proper SPF, SPF 45 and higher is most recommended. Make sure you apply the sunscreen before going into the sun, also reapply when you get wet or when you feel like you may need another layer.

Don’t forget the important but often forgotten areas that may get burned. Some of these areas include behind and on top of your ears, around your eyes, on your scalp, and your lips. You do not want to apply regular sunscreen to your lips, lucky for you they sell chapstick made with SPF. So make sure you are covered before you head out for your fun day in the sun.

TIDES & CURRENTS

Tides Have played in the beach for more than 6hours? Did you realise the same spot that you were playing become dry? Where is the water? When I was young, I thought it was magic but as I grow older than I understand that these changes are called tides due to the result of the gravitational pull of the moon and to a smaller extent, the sun. Tides affect divers by exposing or concealing rocks that are or near the water's surface. For example, a low tide may expose rocks that make the entry and exit hazardous, but when the tide rises, these rocks may be completely submerged and safe to swim over. You may also avoid long surface walk if you are diving in high tides. Currents In the ocean, currents are formed by winds, waves, tides, and the rotation of the earth. In the northern hemisphere, currents move clockwise and in the southern hemisphere, current move counterclockwise. As divers, we need to know the different kind of currents and to resp
