Many sunscreens are actually harmful to aquatic ecosystems. Especially in high concentrations of divers/bathers that use it, sunscreen can come off and accumulate on the water's surface like an oilslick. This is a big concern at the Great Barrier Reef for example. People are encouraged to use more organic solutions for sun protection. An alternative remedy has been to use:
Sesame oil
Distilled water
Coconut oil
And one tiny glob of zinc oxide
