5 Ways to Stay Cool in Three Village

Even though it's hot outside, here's how you can keep cool.

We've got two words for you: air conditioning. With temperatures still sweltering, it's imperative that we all stay cool. You might want to skip the beach, where direct sunlight and quickly-warming waters won't help you much. With that in mind, here are a few ways to stay cool in and around Three Village.

1. Emma S. Clark Memorial Library. You'll find both cool temperatures and cool activities for kids and families indoors at the library.

2. Get Frozen. Yogurt, that is. Check out places like Sweet Frog, Cool Monkey, Wildberry Yogurt, Bella Dolce and Red Mango.

3. Go Hollywood. The Loews AMC movie theater in Stony Brook is a great place to cool down while taking in a hot summer flick.

4. Shop 'Til You Drop. Indoor places like Smith Haven Mall, as well as grocery stores and many mom-and-pop shops, provide a good way to escape from the sun.

5. Culture is Cool. The Long Island Museum and Gallery North are both air conditioned and fun to visit.
