Chances of a jellyfish sting?

Question

what are the chances of getting a jellyfish sting for people that vacation at the ocean?

Answer 1

It depends on the type of jellyfish, the water temperature and clarity, how close you are or if you're perceived as threat.  Best bet would be to let your children go for a dip, if they don't get stung then your good to go in (most small coastal jelly stings don't hurt too bad anyway).

Answer 2

Much higher than those who vacation in the mountains.

Answer 3

and it also depends on how many jellyfish there r

like say... if u going swimming when a swarm of jellyfish is right there then obv the chances r higher lol

but if u dont see any..

and run into one while swimming...

just swim away (let it be)

and probably it wont sting ya (unless ur rly close)

Answer 4

It depends on where in the world you are.
