I try to swim in the mornings or evenings in the oiutside pools otherwise I get burnt pretty quickly.

50+ otherwise.

I might start out with 30, then go to 15... and like BJE not use any.

Rarely use any.
Mostly just short spells in the sun. Never enough to burn.

SPF15 and sometimes 30 will allow me to slowly develop a tan. Living in Australia if I want to spend more than 10 minutes at a time in the sun in Summer then some sort of sunscreen is a must, as I just burn so quickly.

SPF15 for my lips - I burned them in Jaco, Costa Rica and Varadero, Cuba. For my body, SPF30 and up.

No sunscreen for me either. I’m pretty fair skinned toned. I use an App Called Dminder that tells me how much exposure I can get without burning. The time is based on your location,sun postion,cloud cover, UV INDEX.
The App was developed to determine how much vitamin D you get from sun exposure. I’m not sure if this has a placebo effect on me but I’m in a much better mood when I get my dosage of sun....or it could be the enjoyment of wearing a speedo
