  SunSmart has a Vitamin D tracker.. enter location, skin type, and it tells you how long you need to be out for each day. I no longer need vitamin d tablets as a result of getting enough sunshine ;)

      So it is. They probably made a tool for those in Victoria, as there is a significant difference between the amount of sun you need in summer and winter to get the necessary amount of vitamin D.

      "During summer in the southern parts of Australia (for example Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Adelaide, Hobart and Perth), and all year round in the north (Brisbane and Darwin), most of us need a few minutes a day of sun exposure to an area of skin equivalent to your face, arms and hands to help with our vitamin D levels.

      In winter in the southern parts of Australia, where UV radiation levels are below 3 all day, most of us need about two to three hours, spread over each week, to the face, arms, hands or equivalent area.

      People with naturally very dark skin need 3-6 times this amount."
