Beach Tips to make your family comfortable and safe

When I was 16, was in June and had just moved to Florida. I was so excited I could picture that golden tan, I would come. I remember clearly the words of my father, as we headed toward the beach with our towels and radio in search of the perfect tan. "Warning that the Florida sun is stronger than you're used to, you need something with at least 15 at any time, 30 is better, but I am a realist and, often, again." We have implemented our eyes aswe have left, but took the bottle that has given us. Guess what ', it turns out he was right. The first time I was always conscious of the warmth of Florida sunshine was years later. Fast forward ten summers, I was on a plane home to Central Florida from New York, sitting in a window seat with the arm on the 'window' threshold. I wonder how long Orlando when the pilot came and told us to look out the window to see Cape Canaveral, it is with thisRight now, I noticed that my arm was still on the threshold to get much warmer. The truth is that most of its subtropical climate in Florida is so that the sun here than the rest of most of America.

Here are some suggestions of the best beaches for the summer to the line:

First, follow medical advice - Use sunscreen. They have everything from SPF 2 to SPF 60 SPF, but what does that mean and what does it do? SPF stands for Sun Protection Factorand in a few minutes to calculate - the number of minutes the skin is protected, compared with red skin protected.

Make sure children are well covered, that sunscreens designed for children who are now in practice you get to spray quick and let your body go play windin the sand.

Deck chairs are also back, again in all shapes and sizes, some are attached with carrying bags and umbrellas, you can even those with drink holdersand the foot, if you really want to stretch, without the sand. They are short ones that sit right in the surf and sand those that are larger and better in the loose sand on several sides.

Many Florida beaches have lifeguards, if you have young children you have recommended that you frequently use this service and these beaches. Lifeguard stations are scattered along the beaches and easy to recognize because many of them are bright colors. Lifeguards are trained in CPR, basic first display and usually have a direct line of police and emergency services. What happens if you go into a situation of beach does not have a lifeguard and is located in an emergency situation? Fortunately, in this day and age there are people with cell phones all over the world, but you should always have an emergency kit with you or at least some children in the car and know where the nearest help.
