A mum has issued a warning over the dangers of the ocean to beachgoers as temperatures continue to soar.
Kate Lally, 33, was walking along the beach on Wednesday (May 31) when she was suddenly surrounded by dozens of jellyfish. Because she was distracted and listening to a podcast at the time, Kate nearly stepped on one of the sea creatures that were "bigger than her head".
Many species of jellyfish can cause a nasty sting that results in severe skin reactions. Some species such as the Lion's Mane jellyfish which have previously been spotted on beaches across British shores are said to cause reactions that feel like extreme nettle rash.
