Marine- or reef-safe sunscreen protects both your skin and the environment.
I opt for reef-safe sunscreen, even in cruise-ship swimming pools. Sharon Waugh
Sunscreen is vital if you’re going to be spending a lot of time outdoors.
Whether I’m swimming in the crew pool or going to the beach during my time off in port, I always make sure that I’m wearing a marine-safe, SPF 50 sunscreen.
Marine-safe sunscreen is free of chemicals and ingredients that could potentially damage coral reefs or harm marine life.
Even if you don’t plan on going to the beach, the water in the cruise ship pools usually comes from and is returned to the ocean. By buying this type of sunscreen, you can protect both yourself and the sea creatures from harm.
