Skin Cancer Awareness month

May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month, a reminder for scuba divers about the risks of excessive sun exposure. While diving, sunlight can reflect off the water, increasing your chance of skin damage and melanoma, a serious skin cancer. Divers should protect themselves by applying broad-spectrum sunscreen, wearing protective clothing, and conducting regular skin checks. Awareness of changes in skin is important for early detection and treatment of melanoma. By taking these precautions, divers can enjoy the underwater beauty safely.
