| Lion's mane jellyfish |
Nelson City Council have received reports of jellyfish (including Lion’s mane) washing up on Nelson’s coastlines including Tahunanui, Monaco and the Harbour now that the water temperature is increasing for spring.
These jellyfish are usually found in the water, but can also sting once up on the sand and the stings can cause minor welts, so please stay clear of these jellyfish and keep any children and dogs at a safe distance.
Historically, Lion's mane jellyfish give quite a sting, so consult a doctor if swelling or weals are severe. In the meantime, it is recommended to scrape the area with a clean stick or remove the tentacle with tweezers if you have them to hand, then rinse the area with warm water to reduce swelling.
