Jellyfish and Sea Nettles

We just had some friends that came back from the Orange Beach, AL area...which is closeby....and they were talking about there being jellyfish and sea nettles. We%26#39;ve stayed further east (Destin and Panama City) and didn%26#39;t notice that.





Can anyone comment on this?

Sorry...left off that we have plans to come to the beach area there soon.

Its the time of year. Pensacola has jellies too. we were just there last weekend.




Yup, the jellies are out in full force this year. Bring some meat tenderizer to soothe the sting.




My family just got home from Topsail Hill Preserve and grandaughter was stung by a jellyfish. They are also on the beach so be careful where you walk!!




The jellies were there, yes, but in rapidly decreasing numbers. We noticed the small, clear, thus hard to spot, jellies and the bigger reddish-pink variety. Those were easy to avoid. My daughter was stung once but it didn%26#39;t keep her out of the water for very long nor did it require meat tenderizer. I understand that helps though. We stayed at the Hilton. Great place for a weekend but a little rowdy for the little ones so keep them away from the folks propping up the bar and adjacent pool area.
