Reef Safe Sunscreen Australia

25 products

Shop reef safe sunscreen in Australia at Wallaby Wellness. Australia's iconic reef ecosystems — the Great Barrier Reef and Ningaloo — are genuinely threatened by the chemical UV filters found in most conventional sunscreens. Oxybenzone and octinoxate have been shown to contribute to coral bleaching even at trace concentrations. Hawaii, Palau, and parts of Australia have already moved to restrict these chemicals. Reef safe sunscreen — using zinc oxide as the only UV filter — is the responsible choice for sun protection that doesn't cost the reef.

But reef safe doesn't mean less effective. Zinc oxide provides broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection through physical blocking, and at SPF 50+ concentrations it outperforms many chemical alternatives — particularly for long, high-UV Australian days.

Our reef safe sunscreen range includes:

  • Ethical Zinc SPF 50+ — Australian-made, zinc-only, clear finish, water resistant
  • Wotnot SPF 50+ — certified natural, transparent finish, suitable for face and body
  • Thrive Tallow Sun Balms — grass-fed tallow base with zinc oxide, tinted and untinted

All products are free from oxybenzone, octinoxate, and nano-zinc — making them genuinely reef-safe, not just marketed as such.
