Best to wear a hat with a brim and a long sleeved shirt.

Agreed, I’ve picked up an UPF 50+ shirt that can be used for swimming as well, I’m much more comfortable on the beach now. Dries as fast as any swimwear.

How do you know that the shirt shirt is correct SPF?

Sun protective clothing is measured and given a UPF rating. SPF ratings are only for sunscreens.
