‘Blue Dragons’ made their appearance on Spain making the swimming dangerous to many beaches.
According to the authorities’ announcement, on many beaches by the Municipality of Guardamar del Segura in Spain, there was a red flag after the appearance of the so -called “blue dragons”, which have been described as “the most beautiful killer in the ocean”.
The sting of this plasma is potentially deadly and thus excluded about 11 kilometers of beach that have been found Glaucus Atlanticus, such as their official name.
In Costa Blanca, Spain, a ban on swimming was imposed on 11 kilometers of coastline, due to the appearance of rare marine creatures with potentially fatal sting.
Red flags were raised on the beaches of the Municipality of Guardamar del Segoura, north of Torrevija, after the appearance of the so -called “blue dragons”, which have been described as “the most beautiful killer in the ocean”.
On Wednesday, despite the ban, the beach was full of people, though with much fewer people in the sea.
