I made the mistake, a few years back in Belize, of scuba diving without a wetsuit. I wasn’t seriously hurt or anything, but I came out of the water with dozens of stings from tiny little jellyfish. Ever since then, I’ve given jellyfish a wide berth.
So hats off to Nana Trongratanawong, who took this GoPro video of her freediving in Jellyfish Lake in Palau wearing just a bikini. These jellyfish are, in fact, stinging jellyfish, but their sting is relatively mild, and is usually only noticeable on sensitive areas of the body. Still, I’d be wearing a wetsuit if it were me.
