Spent almost a week there in the sun used 30 sunscreen and got a nice tan. Been home 3 days and so far so good.

I went to the beach on accutane also. Never had a problem just loaded up on sunscreen.

Well I avoided the beach for the most part. Usually you won't see the cons about tanning while on tane now, but once you're off it, you'll be left with a bunch of red marks and sun spots. You'll also have an increase in hyperpigmentation and you'll be more prone to scarring. Try to avoid being in the sun and at this moment you should moisturize to heal your skin. Trust me on this one.

I would assume that everyone is different and responds/reacts differently. So hopefully all will be well:)
