We used to go to the NC Outer Banks every summer and we never saw jellyfish. Those beaches are beautiful.

Where can our family vacation in the future where our chance of getting jellyfish stung is like 2% rather than 95%? Would fly almost anywhere in the world for a beach without these f*ckers


Here are the beaches I’ve enjoyed and didn’t encounter stinging jellies in the water:

Hilton Head
Anna Maria island
Lido Key
Siesta Key
St Andrews park beach in Panama City Beach FL
Destin FL
Rosemary Beach
Another 30A beach but forgot the name
Maho and Trunk bay beaches in St John
Rainbow beach and Turtle beach in St Croix
All over Great Exuma in the Bahamas
Cozumel near the cruise port
Castaway Cay (Disney island)


Hmmm jellyfish are well-known to be in Hilton head in late July/all of Aug.

But you’re safe from jellyfish which is what the OP wants.

We go to Sandbridge almost every year and I've never had any issues with jellyfish. You see little ones washed up on the beach sometimes, but they're not stinging ones.

We go in August though--is it a time of year thing?

It's climate change. They love warm water.

Go further north. Rarely see them on the cape or Nantucket

I was just in LBI (NJ) last weekend and we didn’t notice any more than an occasional jellyfish (the ocean was freezing, though!).

Wear a full bodysuit. That’s what I do. I even wear socks because once the sting on my ankle swelled so badly.
