Many people like to get a sun tan when they go to the seaside, but you always need to remember that the Sun can be harmful. Some good tips to keep safe are:
put sun cream on your body regularly - at least factor 15;
wear sunglasses and caps to shade your face and help you see;
wear clothes which keep you cool like shorts and t-shirts;
keep in the shade if you are getting too hot - like under an umbrella or inside.
