• Wear light clothing (cotton or light linen), a wide-brimmed hat and UV400 sunglasses.

🧴 Protect yourself from the sun

• Apply a water-resistant SPF 50+ sun cream, and reapply every 2 hours and after every swim.

• Have children wear a UV-resistant T-shirt and a cap under the vest.

🏃‍♂️ Adapt your activities

• Prefer swimming and playing before 11am or after 5pm.

• Avoid strenuous physical activity if the temperature exceeds 32°C or if the UV index is above 8.

• Quiet games in the shade are preferable, especially for the little ones.

🏊 Safety around water

• One adult for every child under 6.

🌡 How to react to heat stroke

✅ Warning signs :

• very hot, dry skin

• agitation, drowsiness, confused speech

• temperature over 40°C, vomiting

🚨 What to do?

• Put the person in the shade, cool them with damp cloths or water (15-20°C), and give them something to drink if they are conscious.

• Call 112 immediately.

🚗 Important: never leave a child alone

• Never leave a child (or vulnerable adult) in a closed car, cabin or tent.
  In just a few minutes, the inside temperature can rise by more than 10°C and become lethal.

🔥 Fire prevention: protecting nature and visitors

The estate is surrounded by wooded and grassy areas, which are particularly vulnerable to fire in summer.

🚭 What is forbidden :

• Smoking in natural areas (woods, paths, dunes).

• Throw a cigarette butt on the ground or out of the window.

• Barbecues and open fires.

• Flying lanterns, fireworks and candles near vegetated areas.

🚗 Be careful where you park

• Never park your vehicle on dry grass (risk of ignition from a hot catalytic converter).

• Always keep firefighter access points clear.

🔥 In case of smoke or fire :

• Move with your back to the wind, towards an open area or water.

• Call 112 immediately, even if the smoke is just suspicious.

• Never attempt to extinguish a vegetation fire alone.
