The safest time to sit in the sun is early morning (before 10 am) and late afternoon (after 4 pm).
This is because the sun's rays are less intense during these times, reducing your risk of sunburn and other sun-related health problems.
The sun's rays are strongest between 10 am and 4 pm, known as the "peak sun hours". During these hours, the sun's ultraviolet (UV) radiation is at its highest, increasing your risk of skin damage, premature aging, and skin cancer.
To further minimize your risk, always wear sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher, wear protective clothing, and seek shade when possible.
Remember that even on cloudy days, UV rays can penetrate the clouds and harm your skin.
Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water, especially when spending time outdoors.
If you are concerned about your risk of sun damage, consult a dermatologist for personalized advice.
