Free sunscreen on the beach: protection from UV rays in Graal Müritz!

In Graal Müritz, a popular holiday resort on the coast, there has recently been an exciting innovation for all sun worshipers. Free sunscreen dispensers have been installed on the beach, which not only brings joy but also raises awareness about skin protection. These innovative dispensers, which are placed in three different locations on the beach, come from a start-up in the Netherlands. Dörthe Hausmann, managing director of Tourismus- und Kur GmbH Graal-Müritz, emphasizes how important it is to raise awareness of cancer prevention and UV radiation. The right protection is essential, especially when temperatures rise and there is intense sunshine.

But how exactly does the offer work? The dispensers automatically measure the current UV index. When a guest puts their hand under the dispenser, the appropriate amount of sunscreen is dispensed - and it's completely free for all beach guests. The dispensers operate during the summer months from June to September and are designed to help prevent skin damage and sunburn.

Current UV index and protection requirements

A look at the current UV index forecast shows that a maximum value of 7 will be reached today, June 28th. This falls into the “high” category, meaning that particularly fair-skinned people should not be left unprotected for more than 35 minutes in direct sunlight. For darker skin types, this time increases up to 50 minutes. The sun's rays are particularly intense around midday, between 12 p.m. and 2 p.m., which is why careful use of sun protection products is advisable.

• UV-Index heute:
  • 09:00 – 1
  • 10:00 – 1
  • 11:00 – 3
  • 12:00 – 6
  • 13:00 – 7
  • 14:00 – 7
  • 15:00 – 6
  • 16:00 – 5
  • 17:00 – 3
  • 18:00 – 1

A similar picture is expected for the coming days: the UV index will continue to reach 7, which highlights the need for protective measures. Protection with sunscreen is also an important measure. According to the Cancer League Many products are sensitive and must be used within a certain time after opening. Notes on the packaging, such as the “12M” symbol, indicate how many months the product can be used after opening. Using these products consciously can also prevent damage.

In summary, it can be said that the introduction of sunscreen dispensers in Graal Müritz is an important step towards sustainable holiday enjoyment. The current UV index reminds us that protection from the sun should not be neglected - after all, it is a question of health for our skin types. A happy stay on the beach and a safe tan are not a contradiction in terms, even in Graal Müritz!
