The smuck of jellyfish is moving westwards

A total of 14 boats are now working to remove the smuck of jellyfish which are now affecting the Eastern Costa del Sol.

The resources are being shared by the municipalities of Nerja, Algarrobo and Torrox and several tons of the creatures are expected to be collected.

The jellyfish are of the type, ‘pelagia noctiluca’.

Four more boats are standing by in Málaga and Rincón de la Victoria is also taking preparatory measures as the creatures head west.
