Water sports enthusiasts face unique challenges, such as intense sun glare, strong UV rays, and potential eye irritants like saltwater, sand, and wind. Protect your eyes while canoeing, kitesurfing, or on leisurely days on the water with the right sport sunglasses.
What is the best eye protection for water sports?
Sunglasses are a must-have for water sports such as kayaking, paddle boarding, or jet skiing. To protect your eyes and keep you safe, opt for these features:
- UV protection – Lenses that offer high UV protection shield your eyes from harmful ultraviolet rays.
- Lens enhancements – Polarisation or mirroring reduce glare and enhance visibility, allowing you to spot obstacles and navigate with confidence.
- Hydrophobic coatings – Coatings that repel water make lenses less prone to water droplet buildup and blurred vision.
- Fit – Wraparound frames can provide added protection by minimising peripheral light and reducing the risk of water splashes reaching your eyes.
What colour sunglass lens is best for water sports?
Blue lenses effectively reduce glare, making them a great choice for water sports where shimmering water is highly likely. For true colour perception and light reduction, grey lenses are another popular choice.
