This will happen because you need a water proof sunscreen. Also, presence of chlorine causes skin darkening. He should use vitamin c spray on the whole body before and after swimming. For the darkening, de-tanning is important, use a se-tan lotion as well. Lotions also give him vitamin c rich foods in diet.
