I don't disagree, but I love love love to swim, and sometimes a) I miss a spot, b) my swimsuit shifts, or c) the sunscreen isn't as waterproof as it claims to be. The nastiest sunburns I've ever had happened because of b. Once, the top of my bikini shifted enough to expose an inch of skin on my breast that had no sunscreen on it, and I burned badly enough that the tan it turned to afterward was so dark it looked like a birthmark. The worst was a sunburn I got on my knees because I didn't reapply sunscreen on my legs as often as I should have. Each sunburn has caused me to become much more vigilant about preventing the next.
