Golf is enjoyed worldwide, but some destinations offer more sun exposure than others. If you're playing at one of these sun-drenched courses, proper sun protection is essential to keep your skin safe and your game strong.
1. Arizona, USA
Arizona is famous for its desert golf courses, where the sun shines nearly every day of the year. With temperatures often exceeding 40°C (104°F) in the summer, wearing UPF50+ arm sleeves, leg sleeves, and a wide-brim hat is a must.
2. Dubai, UAE
Dubai’s luxurious golf courses come with extreme heat and strong UV rays. Midday tee times can be brutal, so covering up with lightweight, breathable UPF clothing like SParms shoulder wraps and neck gaiters helps keep you cool and protected.
3. Queensland, Australia
Home to the stunning Gold Coast, Queensland is a golfer’s paradise, but it also boasts some of the highest UV levels in the world. As an Australian-owned brand based in the Sunshine State, SParms knows firsthand how important sun protection is. Our UPF50+ gear is designed to keep you safe on the course all year round.
4. South Africa
With year-round sunshine, South Africa’s world-class golf courses demand serious sun protection. Even on cloudy days, UV rays can be strong, making long sleeves and sun sleeves essential.
5. Hawaii, USA
Tropical breezes make golfing in Hawaii feel comfortable, but don’t be fooled—UV rays are intense. Protecting your hands, arms, and neck with high-quality sun protection gear is key to avoiding burns.
Protect Yourself and Never Stop Playing
No matter where you golf, sun protection is just as important as the right clubs and technique. Wearing SParms UPF50+ clothing ensures that you can enjoy the game without worrying about harmful UV exposure. Stay protected, stay comfortable, and keep playing your best round yet!
