Wearing long sleeves, long pants, and a wide-brimmed hat and shoes it seems like sunscreen would only be needed for hands and neck. https://outdoors.stackexchange.com/a/1238 https://outdoors.stackexchange.com/a/1238
Not practical for swimming unless you’re wearing a wetsuit of course but depending on weather conditions I do find long sleeves, pants, and a good hat can be practical for outdoor activity like hiking instead of sunscreen everywhere.
