Location & Climate

In Depoe Bay, UV rises from 1 in January to 8 in June, with peak tanning months being June, July, August. Expect the strongest sun between late spring and early fall.

North America spans a wide UV range from subtropical Florida to northern Canada. Seasons strongly influence tanning potential — summer months offer the best conditions across most of the continent.

Beach and coastal destinations benefit from cooling sea breezes, but UV reflected from water and sand can increase your total exposure by up to 25%. Apply sunscreen more frequently and protect your eyes.

SPF 15-30 is adequate during summer tanning sessions. In winter, UV levels are typically too low to require sunscreen for tanning purposes, though daily SPF is always good skincare practice.
