Pelagia noctiluca
Medium sized Jellyfish, mostly translucent with pinkish tone. It has a bell that is around 10 cm in diameter, 4 long oral arms and long tentacles of over a meter length.
Blue water, pelagic
I got stung by this Jellyfish before I noticed it, during safety stop of my dive. One of the long tentacle brushed through my wrist and cause a stinging pain. Fortunately, I was not allergic to it and it wasn't a major sting.

Congrats Albert for the SOTW nomination!
Your spotting has been nominated for the Spotting of the Week. The winner will be chosen by the Project Noah Rangers based on a combination of factors including: uniqueness of the shot, status of the organism (for example, rare or endangered), quality of the information provided in the habitat and description sections. There is a subjective element, of course; the spotting with the highest number of Ranger votes is chosen. Congratulations on being nominated Albert!
