Q: Is it safe to sunbathe?
A: Take care. Even when it's cloudy you can burn. Babies and children are particularly susceptible to sunburn and high factor sun protection is essential. The same is true of adults, particularly those with fair skin. The best advice is to keep out of the sun when it is at its most intense. The sun is at its strongest in the middle of the day, between 11 am and 3pm. During this time stay in the shade when you can, or if there is no shade it is advised to protect your skin with clothing.
