Don’t Drink The Tap Water

Due to the heat that makes outdoor activities more strenuous, you will be more prone to thirst or dehydration so having a good water bottle is one of the best items you can bring with you.  But due to parasites or amoebae that can spoil your vacation, not to mention cause serious health concerns, avoid drinking the tap water. This goes for the ice as well, so to err on the safe side, ask for drinks that don’t have any. In the event bottled water is not available, make sure you have purification or sterilizing tablets.  If none of these are available to you, including a portable filter, boil the water for at least a minute before drinking it.
