Large amount of Rhizostoma octopus washed up along Penzance beach

Description and Comments

We came across 20+ Rhizostoma octopus along Penzance beach at low tide. Sightings have been reported for a few weeks now, but this was the first time I'd seen so many washed up in this location. Took quite a few pictures of the washed up jellys. All of varying size.
