In the South—especially along the coast—sun protection isn’t just a suggestion, it’s a necessity. With high UV indexes, reflective surfaces like sand and water, and long hours of outdoor activity, the risk of sunburn, premature aging, and skin cancer increases dramatically. Even on cloudy days, UV rays can penetrate and cause damage. Wearing broad-spectrum sunscreen, protective clothing, and seeking shade during peak hours (10 AM to 4 PM) are essential habits for anyone enjoying the southern coastal lifestyle.
