  • An enormous moon jellyfish bloom has outdoor cinematographers racing to a dock off of North Vancouver’s Deep Cove. Abundant in coastal B.C. waters and found in West Coast bays and harbours from California to Alaska, it’s a good thing moon jellyfish don’t have much of a sting.
    Those diving into the cold waters of the Indian Arm - səl̓ilw̓ət in Hun’qumyi’num - are reporting thousands of them clumped together.
    “All of a sudden you’re in this amphitheatre of floating jellyfish just pulsating,” said wildlife conservation photographer Steve Woods. “They’re just all over you, everywhere you look.”
    “You’re basically swimming through the jellyfish and they’re bouncing off your face,” added cinematographer Josh Goodman. “There will be times you can’t actually move through them because they’re so thick.”
    Jay Durant has more.

    You can see them from the dock at Rocky Point Viewpoint in Port Moody as well if you’re not a diver 🤿

    My cousins that reside in Delaware told one time that these creatures will sting the heck out of you. Please be careful 🙏🏻

      Actually moon jellyfish don't sting humans but other species of jellyfish do sting

    visually beautiful perhaps, but this is not a good thing. ask any boater who's sucked these things into his cooling system.

      Certainly not a good thing for the poor jellies.

    Aren't Jellyfishes not individual creatures, but are made up of hundreds of organisms?

      I think that you are thinking of the venomous Portuguese man-of-war. Which is often mistaken for a jellyfish. Jellyfish are single organisms.

      There are other creatures in the same phylum that are but not Jellies
