This last weekend has not been a good one for the beach goers, the reason behind this is that there has been an infestation of jellyfish in our beaches. If you have read my last post that I went diving on Sunday, please note that there were still loads of jellyfish in the sea but with all our equipment on it was very had to get stung by one because we were all covered up.
I don’t know why they have all come and decided to stay for the weekend but it has caused a lot of hot and unhappy people at the beach as swimming was a no go, unless you wanted to look like a person who has been given a proper lashing.
I guess this time we are lucky that the jellyfish that have come in can only give a nasty sting but nothing major. A few years ago we saw the Portuguese Man O' Wars come into Gibraltar waters, now these can pack a punch to be honest and sometimes they can even kill.
So I recommend to keep an eye out for the jellyfish and keep safe and hopefully they would go away soon - preferably before the weekend.
