Why this matters
Itineraries die at 2 p.m. without a heat plan.
Local notes
Oaxaca coast sun is serious. Pack more water on boat days than the cooler promises. Shade is strategic, not guaranteed at every cove.
Hot-day plan
- Early start.
- Water before thirst.
- Shade on the calendar.
- Light long sleeves help.
- Cap alcohol before physical heroes.
