Summer Sailing Items We Love To Use 

The warm weather has finally arrived! ☀️ Keeping safe on the water is vital as the sun is more intense when it reflects off of the water. Below we have our top items that can keep you protected whilst on the water.

SOLRX SPF35 and SPF50

The Solrx Formula is a tried and tested with athletes in all different sports and disciplines. The water block technology provides 8 hours of water protection so no amount of sweat and spray will cause this to run into your eyes. It comes in a handy pocket-sized tube that can be carried anywhere. This is available in SPF50 and SPF35.

This has now been replaced by Intego Pro Sports Suncream

INTEGO PRO SPORTS SUNSCREEN SPF 50+ (75ML)

INTEGO PRO SPORTS SUNSCREEN SPF 30 (75ML)

 

Zhik Sports Cap

Made from 100% Polyester this cap is quick drying with a soft headband.

The Zhik Cap also includes a handy hat clip so that if you knock it overboard it will still be attached to you. Laser Cut ventilation in the top keeps your head cool on the warmest days.

Available in Sea Green / Navy Blue

Sailing Sunglasses

Eyelevel Polarized Sun Glasses with antiglare are great for protecting your eyes from the UV when on the water or in the dinghy park. These sailing sunglasses even comes with a microfibre pouch to keep them protected when in your sailing bag. Find the frame and lens colour you like below on our sailing sunglasses page.
