This is a fairly common condition for those who seek tropical vacations during winter, specially for those who decide on renting a beach house from a Twiddy agency.
The skin blisters can also be caused by certain medications (antibiotics, blood pressure medications) and some lotions which contain alpha or beta hydroxy acids or retinoids from vitamin A
How to avoid it?
You can prevent these skin rashes easily. Do these:
- Wear protective clothing
- Use a good quality sunscreen when you’re out in the sun.
- Stay way from the sun between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m
If you still end up developing those rashes, see your doctor for prescription creams so that you can heal fast.

When I was a young adult (lol, wayyyy back when) I blistered VERY badly. Today I do not tan in those spots! I cannot stress enough the importance of sunscreen and some covering up!
Sheila, same here. Would get all rosy red. Not any more though. In fact, because I was in sales/marketing, I had to travel quite a bit and often used a bike. The next day, every one would know what neckline I had worn the previous day – and which footwear from the tan marks. I am immune now 😀
