Hi All!
My family and I (me, DH, DS7, DS5, DD3) will be doing a 7-night Western Caribbean out of Port Canaveral this August, and are starting to plan now for sun protection. DD3, DS7, and I are very fair-skinned and VERY sun-sensitive; we live in Virginia and I can get a severe sunburn from being out for 5-10 minutes unprotected here in the summer.
I know it's going to be much worse closer to the equator, and I want to make sure I'm prepared. Are there any sun protection items you've used and liked? Obviously we'll take logical precautions (wearing sunscreen, not going out between 11-3, etc.), but I know there are a lot of specialty clothing items, etc. out there.
Thanks!
April
