People like to cool off in water during hot spells?

Wow, who would have guessed . . . .  .

Probably not people looking at chimps. Humans have
rather unique thermoregulation problems. Also, they
like seafood - maybe something to do with the omega
fats and the brain.

Obviously, that means we had aquatic ancestors.

I suppose the fact that attendance at caverns and caves goes up on hot
days, means we also had subterranean ancestors . . . . ?

Chimps don't like caves as much as we do either - though see:

"First study reporting chimps using caves"

....so yes: quite a number of our ancestors probably lived in caves.
