biodegradable sunscreen

[Spearfishing Cozumel]

We at Spearfishing Today have moved to Biodegradable sunscreen only. In case you still use regular sunscreen while diving in Cozumel, take a minute, read and change.

What is the active ingredient in the product you use?

Most of the biodegradable sunscreens I've seen, and all of the ones I've seen for sale in Mexico, use zinc oxide and VASTLY overstate the SPF afforded by use. For most of them, using the sunscreen offers practically no protection.

Hmm... I have used Soleo for several years. It is zinc oxide based and protects me for a full day of diving.
