Sun and sea on the wound is not a good idea...I was advised by my tatooist to put preparation H (pile cream 5555) on the wound for a few days.
I have a mate who did'nt bother to cover up or nothing after and his tat is fcuked up now damaged from the sun. This is in ireland btw where the sun is a rare occasion. If you do get one done keep it covered...
all the best
