Galapagos Islands?
Question: Galapagos Islands?
tomorrow we are traveling to quito, ecuador, then on sunday to the galapagos for a 7 day cruise. we are going to be outside a lot and were wondering how tan or sunburnt are we going to get? like even if we wear SPF 50, will it come off and we get tan atleast a little bit? because i really want to get some sun, and i know there will be alot of it cuz we’ll be right on the equator, but has anyone experienced this?

lol it’s not like its 300 degrees. its pretty much like Southern California. Don’t worry about it.
OK it depends on your type fo skin. Ecuaro is the best aplce to get a tan. I went to a 7 day cruise by the caribbean laid bny the pool all day, and didnt get a tan…NOTHING at all! I was sooo mad! but I went to The beach in Ecuador, used sunscree, sat for 2 hours under an umbrella, and I got sunburned!!! My skin picks equatorial rays pretty well, also I had a lot of carrots before going (it helps you get a golden tan, not a black tan) I dont get as tanned in CA (I live in Southern CA) so, I would recommend wearing a sun tan with some SPF to protect yourself… and dont go crazy, a couple of hours a day is enough… also get in the water a lot… helps to get a sun tan without heat exhaustion
