Always Wear Sunglasses When Participating in Water Sports

Sunglasses are extremely important to wear while participating in water sports, even if you think you don't need them. The sun can be deceiving on the water so don't let it fool you.

Because water can reflect a lot of UV radiation, even if you are in a shaded area, UV intensity may still be high. Also, just because the UV index is only at a 0-2 for the day (minimal damage), the water will reflect the rays making them more harmful.
