Lovely colors and intriguing shapes, but they can make for an unpleasant encounter!

You got that right! Last year (2017) when the huge swarm arrived, it blocked the water intake at the Aquarium. A couple of divers went down to see what was going on and got multiple stings on their faces. Their bodies were protected by wetsuits, so no stings there. Not fatal, but more than uncomfortable. Lips swelling, and feels like bad bee stings for awhile, apparently. Laura

Not a great place to go for a swim!

So great to get three together in their natural environment.
