Indoor Activities: Heat exhaustion can deplete your vitality and attitude. So, always have a safety kit with you. Visiting cafes, local libraries or art museums during the height of the afternoon heat is a good way to enjoy air-conditioned environments. It allows you to interact with the local culture without subjecting you to the intense sun. Plan your schedule to avoid the hours of highest UV exposure.

Clothing: Wear loose, light-colored cotton or linen clothes. Wear breathable shoes, polarized sunglasses and a hat with a large brim.

Suncreen: Use a lot of a premium SPF 30+ sunscreen and reapply it every two hours.

Stay Hydrated: When you’re really perspiring, water alone is insufficient. To restore vital minerals, use electrolyte tablets in your water or carry ORS (Oral Rehydration Salts) sachets.

Food: Avoid meals that are rich and greasy. To keep cool from within, choose water rich meals such as watermelon, cucumbers and yogurt.
