With more than one million new skin cancer cases being diagnosed every year, this is clearly info that Latinas can not ignore!

ORCHARD BEACH, NY

New York City’s Boricua community represents at Orchard Beach in the Bronx. Reachable by public transportation, the 1 mile crescent shaped beach has been a Latino hangout since back in the day when Hector Lavoe used to play outdoor concerts near the water. Besides sunbathing and swimming, beach-goers partake in everything from dominos to nighttime salsa dancing every Saturday and Sunday night in the summer. Latino Flavor and Seafood Cafe supply the plátanos and camarones. A summer concert series will feature a number of acts en español, with Tito Nieves rumored to be the opening performer this summer. For those who want to make it an overnight experience, City Island is just across the water and has a Victorian B&B with rooms under $150 a night.

Dolores Dice: Everybody Needs Espacio Sometimes

STIFLING PARENTS

Dear Dolores: I’m 19 years old and my parents are still overprotective. I know I’ve made some mistakes in the past, but they won’t let go. If I go out at all, I have to be home by 9:30 and if I’m not back on time, they go to my friend’s house to get me. It’s embarrassing. So, my question is, why are my parents so overprotective and how can I make them less so?
