But where it shines every day, the right approach to UV radiation is crucial. Not just in summer and not just on the beach.<\/p><p><strong>365 days UV risk<\/strong><br \/>Many people underestimate the year-round intensity of the sun in regions such as the Marina Alta or Marina Baixa. UV rays penetrate even when it is cloudy and windy - and their effects add up over years. Particularly at risk: People with fair skin, children and anyone who spends a lot of time outdoors for work or leisure.<\/p><p><strong>Myths that you can save yourself<\/strong><br \/>\u201eI'm already tanned, I don't need any more protection\u201c - a widespread misconception. Even tanned skin can be damaged by UV rays. The natural protective function is limited. If you rely on a tan permanently, you not only risk wrinkles, but also serious health consequences such as skin cancer.<br \/>The belief that sun protection blocks vitamin D production also persists. The fact is that just a few minutes a day in southern European sunlight is enough to cover the requirement. The protection is therefore not \u201etoo much\u201c, but comes at exactly the right time.<\/p><p><strong>Proper protection - in everyday life<\/strong><br \/>The best protection starts before sunbathing - and not just on the beach. Dermatologists recommend:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fc36849 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"fc36849\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8510101 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8510101\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul><li>High sun protection factor: SPF 30 or 50, even on cloudy days.<\/li><li>Textile protection: clothing with UV protection, hats, sunglasses.<\/li><li>Look for shade: Between 11am and 4pm, especially for children.<\/li><li>Do not forget to reapply cream: Especially after swimming or sweating.<\/li><li>After-sun care: Supports skin regeneration.<\/li><\/ul><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><strong>Particularly at risk: children's skin<\/strong><br \/>Children's skin is thinner and more sensitive - and carries damage with it for a lifetime. Parents who pay attention to shade, clothing and sun cream protect their children for more than just one summer day.<\/p><p><strong>Sun needs a sense of proportion<\/strong><br \/>Sun protection is not a luxury, but everyday care. Especially on the Costa Blanca, where UV radiation is part of the climate. If you are well informed, you can protect yourself better - without having to give up life outside. It's not about doing without, but about being sensible. Because the sun is here to stay - the only question is: how do we deal with it?<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a4073da
