get some tanning lotion...it will prevent a burn...maybe an hour. whenever i goto the beach i tan for a little, go in the water...tan somemore. you dont even have to lay out the whole time. just being out and swimming will help you tan

Get a mystic tan. It's only about 100 dollars more expensive.

In the summertime, whenever I went to Hawaii, or any sunny beachy place, I just swam and played, and then eventually I had a tan. I stayed out there for about 4 hours (but don't just stand in the direct sun that long, I swam and surfed and bodyboarded and all that good stuff). Just be sure to wear some suntun lotion.

(The tan eventually just disappeared. But it doesn't matter because I'm already dark enough/tan enough.)

lol just go to the beach and swim around and have fun. that's how i got a tan. actually im naturally tanned. cant get untanned =\ which is like bad for an asian apparently blink.gif because they prefer pale girls

but anywho~ yea! if you play around and swim in the water you still get a tan! better than just lying there

Lie down on each side for 15 minutes. 4 sides, so it's an hour. And always always use sunscreen.

Yep, that's what I do.
