I¡ve brought the towel and the sun cream but I've heard an old lady there are a lot of those jellyfish or medusas in the beach.

The fúcking :censored:

are painful and have ruined the day. Because I like the beach, but especially the part of the bath, I can't be lied down for hours under the sun nor read comfortably in a beach.

:censored:

medusas

The reason of being a lot is that turtles eat them and since we're making dissapear turtles there are more medusas. Hope they clean them up! much worse than spiders!! and in the water!!

Sabre what the f@ck is a medusa? i am off to Murcia in 29 days as my mum lives there and Alicante and i don't wanna step on one of those horrible sounding Kunts when going to the beach with my wife and kids. :laugh:

they're normally harmless but if you look at them you'll turn into stone.

and they look like this

Holy sh1.te dude! where did it land it's space ship.

They came with cold waters.

they have different shapes but most of the times something like this

They're mostly water, when you grab them and throw to the sand, they almost dissapear. But their touch make effects like this

They lose their pseudo-legs when they touch you but it's painful and if you're not an experience swimmer and you're in a bit deep waters (you don't touch the ground) you can get nervous and have a bad time.

Normally they clean up with a net and a boat, but this year they've come a lot and some of them are a more painful variant coming from portugal. They're not beneath waters but appear in the surface and seem like a platic bag. Fúcking :censored:

.

In the middle of the summer or in more warm waters such as the ones of the east there shouldn't be any of those, I think.

in the med last summer, a few miles each side of barcelona, there were a lot of jellyfish swarms. there were quite a few days when you couldn't go in the water. so you had the choice - fry in 35 to 40 degrees of humid heat, or jump in the sea and get stung to sh!t by these bast'ards.

Is a good thing my old dears got a swimming pool because my other half just freaked out

by **Sabre** » Tue Jul 08, 2008 3:40 pm

Andy: I got it wrong, medusas are more likely to appear in warmer waters rather than in the cantabric sea :laugh:

So bad news to misty red.

Thing is Andy, that this year's variant in our sea is

This one, that is the most dangerous one. If one of a full size touch you and your inmune system is a bit sensitive you can die, and indeed it has happened.

Anyway mistyred, do not panic. In every Spanish beach you have a flag to warn you about baths. If the flag is green it means there's not medusas, there's not dangerous tides that will sweep you into the sea and it's safe. If it's yellow, it may be because the jellyfish or high waves, ask the first aid guy. If the glag is red, bath at your own risk.

The thing is that a swimming pool bath has nothing to do with sea water bath

. Sea bath makes your tan nicer, is good for skin if you have any problem in it, and somehow it makes you feel better. Swimming in the sea is also nicer than in a swimming pool. But I'll have to go swimming pool after work instead of beach.
:no

that's true, apart form various parts of the med where you're more likely to be swimming in a soup of tampons, sanitary towels, condoms, turds, oil, jellyfish, elephants tusks and general fishing boat detritus.

its so nice to be back on the atlantic

I don't know why E.T.A bothers to plant bombs in order to freak out tourists from Spain in the med.

I'd give you a micro instead and in a couple of minutes you'd convince tourists not to come to the Spanish coast :laugh:

Medusas and then all that... which is true in the med.

You forgot to mention a classical phenomenon in mediterranean waters, when tourists entering hesitantly in the water suddenly say "oooh what a nice tide of sudden warm water!" also known as "the children's píss".

So better of swimming in the River Thames then

couple of summers ago the beach at trearddur bay in wales got closed off by coastguard, police, lifeguards etc, even the RAF helicopter was hovering around trying to get in on the action - apparently there was a poisonous jellyfish (a portuguese man o war i think) spotted in the bay. and i thought it was all just a welcoming committee for me

by **Sabre** » Tue Jul 08, 2008 8:28 pm

Yes it is the jellyfish in the photo, with purple colour "The portuguese caravel". Apparently they can kill people, but as much as a bee or wasp can, if you have some sort of allergy to them.

We're not so advanced though, no chopters, just a boat and a hand net
