Sun allergies do exist but they are relatively uncommon. Typically individuals who are allergic to the sun have an immune system response that creates a rash on the exposed skin. In some cases there are treatments available but many individuals take necessary precautions and avoid exposing their skin to sunlight.

There are many conditions that can make people sensitive to the sun. They are not exactly allergies, but people with them may not be able to go to the beach.
