Partying in Tulum just feels different. Even in its nightlife settings, the zen vibe that permeates...
We all look forward to summer and a classic beach day. While our priorities are to have fun, swim in the sea, and get a tan, staying safe is above all else.
Particularly, protecting our skin from the sun's intense rays prevents complications such as painful burns, sunstroke, or, in the most severe case, heat stroke. Fortunately, having a safe day at the beach is very simple, and we'll tell you what you should do for your next getaway.
Indispensable in The Beach Bag
On a beach day, you can never forget sunglasses and a hat. Sunglasses protect your vision from UV rays and intense reflected light, while a hat provides shade and protects your entire face and head from overheating.
Sunscreen is also undisputed. Get a high-protection one (SPF 50), and apply it all over your body, even your ears! Make sure your sunscreen is reef-safe.
Hydration Is Key
We know that on the beach, it's impossible to resist an icy beer—with michelada, if you're in Mexico—or a refreshing mojito. However, you must drink water to avoid the risk of dehydration, whose symptoms range from nausea to fever. We recommend that you drink a glass of cold water between drinks.
Time Also Matters
It is a fact that there is a time when the sun is more intense, and therefore, prolonged exposure represents a greater risk. Between 7 a.m. and 11 a.m., it is safe to expose ourselves under the sun with the appropriate precautions. After noon, it is recommended to avoid direct exposure, until 4 p.m., when the intensity decreases.
Don't Forget to Have Fun!
These tips are easy to follow, so remember to protect yourself first to have fun on your vacations, which are much more exciting in the Mexican Caribbean, where you can visit iconic places like Tulum and Playa del Carmen.
In both destinations, you'll find everything for an unforgettable vacation with their turquoise beaches, entertainment, and luxury accommodations like Happy Address.
