Huge bloom in Newport, Rhode Island
Description and Comments
Swam into hundreds of tiny jellies at First Beach in Newport, RI. Not sure what type, but they were everywhere, concentrated by the buoy closest to Cliff walk. None were stingers - I swam right through them with no problem other than feeling icky afterwards!
