Don’t get me wrong. I greatly advocate using a title that throws the public a bit off. ( I do it all the time)  So I have no problem with the title.  Especially, after your clear explanation.

Swim between the flags.

Don’t put your fingers in anything you don’t know what’s inside.

Don’t touch wildlife (literally any of it no matter how small).

Don’t disturb resting items (branches, logs etc)

That should keep you mostly alive. Mostly.

Literally every foot of the waterline was covered for the whole beach.

These things STING and will leave a scar that lasts for months. Hurts like hell. We saved a few tourists from going into the water for a swim.

I have never really seen them bunched like this…[Read more]
