Sun bathers

It's hard to keep applying new coats of sunblock in this UV-high climate, especially to children who are constantly in and out of the water at the beach. Solkids, a Spanish swimwear brand for youngsters, makes things easier for worried parents with its UV-resistant bathing suits that provide protection up to SPF 50. The two-piece suits, made of a blend of polyester, cotton and Lycra, come in many styles, with some featuring a convenient back panel for nappy changes or trips to the toilet. The quick-dry swimsuits, at Euro49.50 ($460) each, come with matching accessories such as protective hats, swim vests and velour robes. Parents are advised that sunblock should still be applied. Solkids is available online at www.solkids.com. Shipping from Spain to Hong Kong costs Euro14.90.
