Stay Safe During the Heatwave in Cyclades

As temperatures soar during the summer months, residents and visitors in the Cyclades and Dodecanese islands must take necessary precautions. High temperatures can pose significant health risks, particularly for vulnerable groups such as young children, the elderly, and those with chronic illnesses. To help you stay safe and enjoy your time in Greece, here are some essential tips for protection against extreme heat:

Stay Cool and Avoid Crowds
-Seek Shade and Cool Areas: Spend time in cool and shaded places, and avoid crowded areas to minimize the risk of heat-related illnesses. Use air conditioning or fans if available.
-Limit Physical Activity: Avoid heavy physical exertion in high-temperature, windless, and humid environments.

Protect Yourself from the Sun
-Avoid Sunbathing: Steer clear of sunbathing, walking, or running under direct sunlight. If you choose to be outdoors, wear a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, and light-********, loose-fitting clothing made from breathable fabrics that allow sweat to evaporate.
-Avoid Synthetic Fabrics: Stick to natural fabrics like cotton that help keep your skin cool and dry.

Stay Hydrated and Eat Light
-Drink Plenty of Water: Keep yourself hydrated by drinking lots of water and natural fruit juices. Avoid alcoholic beverages as they can lead to dehydration.
-Eat Light Meals: Opt for light meals rich in fruits and vegetables. Reduce your intake of fatty foods and avoid overeating.

Special Care for Vulnerable Groups
-Protect Infants and the Elderly: Pay special attention to the needs of infants, young children, the elderly, and those with chronic illnesses. Ensure they stay hydrated and cool.
