Maui Travel Tips: 3 Steps to Sunburn and Hydration Protection!

You arrive on Maui and all you want to do is "Get to the Beach!" Cold rainy days are left far behind as you throw your belongings at the room and don your fave suit and rush out the door toward sandy freedom! "It's too cloudy or late in the day, all I need is a towel.

STOP! Follow the 3 Steps BEFORE you rush out the door. Your body will thank you!

Step 1:

Cover all exposed body parts with a sunscreen your skin tolerates. Should this be to arduous you can also wear light sun protective clothing - although if you plan on swimming this is not practical. Be sure your sunscreen protects for UVA & UVB rays and is waterproof if you are swimming.


Step 2:

Grab a HAT! This is so easy and protects not only your neck and face but yes "Your Scalp". Quite often we totally forget that the top of our heads are extremely vulnerable to sun exposure only because we can't see the top of our heads!



Step 3:

H2O/Water - Grab a bottle of this substance before you expose yourself to the elements no matter what. Your body is 95% water and relies on being constantly replenished especially when you are outside in the sun, wind and humid weather.

The 5 mins extra and the quick trip to the ABC store for water - (if you didn't already on the way to your accomodations!) will save you huge headaches toward sunset. Heat exhaustion and Dehydration can put a real damper on your Maui Vacation. So Sunscreen, Hat and Water before you leave for any excursion on Maui!
