In order to protect yourself against the sun, it's important to wear sunscreen with at least SPF 30. Sunscreen can be purchased from most stores in Peru. It's also a good idea to wear sunglasses and to stay hydrated, especially when you're on the beach. Bring a water bottle with you and take breaks in shade throughout the day.
