Traveller gets sunburned despite shade on Gili Meno beach
Original: Spent the morning sitting here thinking I was safe because of the shade. I was wrong. It did not block any sun. Now I ha
A traveller spent a morning in what they believed was protective shade on a beach on Gili Meno, a small island near Lombok in Indonesia, only to discover the cover offered no sun protection at all. They are now left with a sunburn pattern matching the shape of their shirt, and are sharing the story with amused warnings to fellow holidaymakers about how easily skin can burn even when you think you are covered.
Why now: People relate to the common holiday mistake of assuming shade means full sun protection, and the striking burn pattern makes it a shareable cautionary tale.
