The beach today had the yellow flag, which was a bit of a surprise because the sea was quite calm. But the yellow flag was up because of the jellyfish scare.
According to the BBC:
Mediterranean on jellyfish alert The chances of encountering a jellyfish are now much higher.
Thousands of holidaymakers in the Mediterranean have been stung by jellyfish as huge swarms of the creatures invade coastal waters. Some Spanish beaches have been closed, but Sicily and North Africa are also reported to be badly affected. Researchers say at least 30,000 people have been stung since summer began.
Luckily we didn´t encounter any and we had a great time swimming today. My son was even a bit disapointed of not having seen one.
