During isotretinoin treatment is not the time to work on your tan! Isotretinoin can cause your skin to become more sensitive to the sun( photosensitivity). You'll be more susceptible to sun burn and sun damage.while using the medicine you may develop second degree sun burn rashes,itching ,blisters,pigmentation on the skin,....it is not only the sun exposure but also the sea in itself causes dryness to the skin because of salt and isotretinoin causes dryness too ,then you can complain also from itching,scratching areas ,....and note that all your body will be sensitive to sunlight not only your face .
-you can swim in closed swimming pools but whenever you get out of water dry your self and use a good moisturizer on your body to avoid dryness from chloride used in pools
IF you wish to go to the beach DESPITE WARNING then:
-use plenty of sunscreen water resistant with a minimum spf 45,To ensure that you get the full SPF of a sunscreen, apply about a shot glass full 30 minutes before sun exposure to allow the ingredients to fully bind to the skin,and reapply every two hours, or immediately after swimming, toweling off, or sweating a great deal.
-seek the shade go when the swun is not intense,The sun is most intense between 10 AM and 4 PM, try an early morning or late afternoon trip
-Avoid tanning booths, and sunlamps,tanning isn't good for your skin. Try a self-tanner instead. You'll get that beach-bronzed look without damaging your skin.
-Protect your head, face and eyes with a broad-brimmed hat (at least 3" all the way around) and sunglasses that filter out 99 to 100 percent of UV radiation.Cover up with long sleeves and pants when you aren't swimming
-apply good moisturizer everytime you get out water
-drink plenty of water
