I don't think swimsuits are modest, personally, even if they are "full coverage." My girls and I wear swim trunks (board shorts) to the knees and rash guards. (Usually with a swimsuit underneath because of the tight fit and light weight material.)

The 3rd hr of the Today show just had a doctor as one of their guests and her topic was sunscreen; What to use, how often to apply , its importance etc.
AND she suggested having your children wear rash guards as sun protection!

So if not for modesty---wear rash guards to avoid skin cancer.

Absolutely. I make my son wear a rash guard, too, because his skin is so fair, he will blister just like I do. I sat at a baseball game Saturday for only about an hour--but my back was to the sun--and I have a terrible burn where the neckline of my shirt dipped down a little. It's been painful all week.

Even if you can't find an adult sized rash guard, there are knit materials that don't hold water, and aren't clingy--wear them over a suit in a dark material, and it'll be almost the same. Usually you can find the right tees in the workout clothes.

This is the only truly effective sun protection you can use.
