Lifeguards found 80 jellyfish in Waikiki yesterday morning and 100 more at Ala Moana, and a jellyfish watch remains in effect through tomorrow, Ocean Safety Division officials said.

Despite yesterday's influx in Waikiki and at Ala Moana, no jellyfish were found at Hanauma Bay or any other beach around O'ahu, officials said.

Lifeguards assess beaches for box jellyfish during the alert period. If box jellyfish are discovered, warning signs are posted as warranted.

Persons stung by box jellyfish are advised to flush the sting area with copious amounts of white vinegar. Anyone experiencing breathing difficulty, muscle cramps/spasms, and/or persistent pain are advised to seek immediate medical attention. Lifeguard stations are supplied and equipped to treat this type of marine sting.
