Default I want to go traveling to beaches in the Caribbean. Is it really unsafe to get a tan?

I love sunbathing and really enjoy having a healthy tan - are there ways to absolutely avoid the dangers of skin cancer?
I want to be a beach comber for a month or two

Thanks in advance

A limited amount of sunlight is good for you, but it mostly depends on your skin type. If you're fair skinned and burn easily, you will pay heavily when you're older. I grew up in Arizona and I'm now 57 and my skin is in really bad shape and I'll probably get skin cancer. My grandfather died from it. So, I guess it all depends on whether you want to take that chance.

Well, needless to say, suntan is a must - or else you'll get burnt!
Otherwise, just make sure you don't do too much, you should be fine.

There isn't rlly a way to be safe about tanning, there's always a risk. But always make sure you wear at least spf 15, cause that blocks out some of the harmful rays
