Should i wear a bikini going down the Amazon river?

Question

going on vacation to Brazil next week, so i was just wondering if exposing too much skin on a boat going on the Amazon river will be dangerous? like mosquito bites, ect?

Answer 1

YES.

Answer 2

probably, so use lots of reppelents and sunscreen.

You should Wear a shirt and shorts on top of your bikini, and carry a bag with you, when you want to wear the bikini, take off the shorts and pants, respray, and your set to go.

Answer 3

The type of swimwear you choose to wear is a personal decision.  Be sure whatever you decide you have a coverup or clothing to put over.  The most important is to take plenty of sunscreen (SPF 35 or higher) and insect repellant with you.  You may want to take these along with you on the trip as they are more expensive in Brazil.  It is always a good idea to use products you are used to to avoid allergic reactions.

Answer 4

Maybe wear one under shorts & a tee to see how it goes.There are some of the strangest insects I have ever seen there. It just depends, if the boat is large enough that you can go inside if anything is bothering you. And remember if you fall in, piranhas!

Answer 5

Everyone uses bikini in boats.

Of course, you should use sunscreen and don't expose to the sun from 10:00 to 16:00 hours to avoid burns.

To avoid mosquitoes, using repellent mainly in the late afternoon and evening.

Good trip.
