Jellyfish
Description and Comments
Europe, Spain, South Coast, Andalusia, at La Cala de Mijas (near Fuengirola). Mi August to end August 2012. Clear sea, warm water, sandy beach with only 1M of stones & shells as you enter the water. sometimes windy (direction from Cadix to Malaga), next day calm. Saw jellywish several days in a row, and once only one day. Every two minutes somebody came out of the water with a brownish/purplish jellyfish in their net. I'd say spaced about 5-10m. They floated around the shore up to 5m in the sea, on the surface and under the surface, and were carried in by the wavelets (well mediterranean waves). 2 to 5 per day!
