Are there jellyfish at Aheloy beach?

Jellyfish do appear at Aheloy beach, primarily moon jellyfish, which are the most common species in the Black Sea. They tend to arrive seasonally in July and August, driven by warm surface temperatures and wind direction. Presence is intermittent rather than constant. Many visitors in peak season report no jellyfish at all during their entire stay, while others encounter blooms that last a day or two before dispersing. Moon jellyfish have very mild stinging cells and rarely cause more than minor skin irritation in most people. Children with sensitive skin should rinse off quickly with fresh water if they make contact. If jellyfish are visible in the water at Aheloy, the practical approach is to wait a day. Wind changes typically push them along the coast within 24 to 48 hours. The low salinity of the Black Sea, around 18 parts per thousand compared to 35 in the Atlantic, limits the size and density of jellyfish blooms compared to warmer saltier seas. May, June, September, and October see very few jellyfish, which is another reason shoulder season is attractive for swimmers.
