What’s the best sunscreen for surfing?

At this point, we believe that everybody is aware of how dangerous is unprotected exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays. As surfers we must have special care as we spend long hours under the sun and in the water.

So ok, we all know that but how can I know which is the best sunscreen?

First of all, the sunscreen should be water proof, obviously you do not wanna lose protection after your first wipe out.

Also, we recommend to use at least 50 spf so you can have protection during longer time.

If possible, chose a sunscreen that ads mineral protection. This will add a physical barrier to your skin that shields it from the sun’s rays.

But the most important is to apply the sun screen at least 20 minutes before you get in the water and reapply every two hours so you remain protected.
