Has anyone seen the red jellyfish at the beach?
Published 1 year, 9 months ago in My life.I was at the beach last night (Aspendale) and there
were heaps of red jellyfish.
Has anyone else had a similar experience?
Even better, are there any brainy or scientific types
who can shed some light on whether these jellies
are dangerous or not?
Replies much appreciated.

Red? Maybe they are normal jellyfish with sunburn!
we do a lot off fishing shows and i cant say ive seen a jelly fish on our beaches big fella tours
It is probably the lion’s mane jellyfish according the the Melbourne Aquarium. If stung it will cause an itch but no long term effects. Treat with vinegar or sodium bicarb and rinse in Salt Water, not fresh tap water.
yeah there were a bunch of them in mornington in JAN washed up on the beach
Yes I think I had the unpleasantness of being stung by them last weekend, I have little red bumps behind my knees that are still itching today!
