Club MAC sun protection

It’s no secret that we’re blessed with glorious sunshine here in Majorca. Our island has the perfect weather for your summer holiday and working on your holiday tan. Did you know that our temperatures reach an average of 31°C in August? While we at Club MAC love enjoying this sunny weather, we also dedicated to making sure that all our guests stay safe. Here are our top tips for sun safety this summer!

Keep topping up your sun cream

Whenever you’re packing to come to Club MAC, sun cream is a necessity; keeping your skin protected from the harmful rays of the sun and any nasty burns. But while most of us remember to put it on in the morning, we’re all guilty of forgetting to top it up during the day at some point. Whether you’re lying out on our sunbeds or taking a dip in one of our 7 pools, that sun cream can wear off throughout the day. To stay safe in the sun, make sure you’re topping up your coverage throughout the day.

Cover up

Other essentials when you’re packing are your sunglasses and sunhat. These important pieces of apparel will help to make sure that your head and eyes are protected from the sun. A wide-brimmed sunhat is a great way to help protect your hair and skin from the sun’s UV rays. So, why not pick up your favourite hat and guard yourself against the sun’s negative effects? You won’t regret it.

Take breaks from the sun

We know that many of us aim for the perfect holiday tan – but sitting out all day in the sun can have serious consequences. Make sure that you take plenty of breaks from the sun and sit in the shade at various points throughout the day. Not only will this help to cool down your body, it will even prevent you from burning. It’s a win-win!

There’s no denying that the middle of the day can get extremely hot in Alcudia. We always recommend that you try and stay out of direct sunlight between 12pm and 3pm, as this is when the sun is at its hottest. Why not spend this time enjoying one of our restaurants or relaxation area? They’re the perfect retreat from the sun’s heat.

Keep hydrated

Hot weather can dehydrate you very quickly, so it’s vital that you are keeping hydrated throughout the day. Whether you’re taking part in one of our activities or relaxing by the pool, make time to get your family drinks. It’s the perfect excuse to make the most of our all-inclusive drinks offer!
