As we welcome September, the temperatures still reach hot and humidity levels so staying cool continues to be essential for residents and visitors alike. Here’s how to make the most of heat while keeping comfortably cool.
Explore Indoor Attractions
When the sun is at its peak, consider exploring Naples’ indoor attractions. The Naples Botanical Garden offers shaded pathways through lush tropical flora, while the Naples Zoo provides a fascinating glimpse into wildlife conservation efforts in a comfortable, shaded environment. Museums such as the Baker Museum at Artis—Naples offer cultural enrichment away from the heat.
Stay Hydrated
With temperatures often climbing into the 90s (Fahrenheit) during summer, hydration is key. Carry a reusable water bottle and refill it regularly from the numerous water stations found throughout Naples’ parks and public spaces. Coconut water and freshly squeezed citrus juices are also great options to stay hydrated and replenish electrolytes lost through perspiration.
Plan Outdoor Activities Wisely
If you’re eager to explore Naples’ outdoor charms, plan your activities early in the morning or later in the afternoon to avoid the peak heat of midday. Sunset cruises along Naples Bay offer a cooling breeze and breathtaking views, while sunrise walks along Naples Pier provide serene moments before the day heats up.
