Sunbathing can be thirsty work so you may prefer to soak up the rays in a local café this week to stay hydrated.
Amber, or level 3, Heat-Health Alerts have been put in place for the south east, meaning that temperatures could exceed 30C and could bring about a rise in demand for healthcare services as people suffer heat-related illnesses, like heatstroke and dehydration.
There are many lovely cafés in Hampshire for you to enjoy an iced coffee while the hot weather is still with us, so we have compiled together a list of the best cafés in the area with outdoor seating.
Make sure to check out the whole gallery to see which cafés have outdoor seating in your local area.
