Accutane And The Beach?

I know that others have asked about tanning while on Accutane, but I've never actually seen anyone mention anything about the beach?

I've been on Accutane before, but it was during the winter so I didn't have to worry about the sun. However, this is my second trial and now I live in Hawaii, so I am always at the beach or in the ocean, though Hawaii is on the equator, so it's closer to the sun. Will I have to stop going altogether? Or can I just douse myself in sunblock? What will happen if I get sunburned? I had a military doctor prescribe it to me so they didn't warn be about any of this.

All Accutane does is make you more prone to get a sunburn. High SPF and remember to reapply every two hours or so and you should be fine.
