Malta’s jellyfish invasion continues as temperatures soar for the summer

Jun 19 2022

As we continue to traverse into the much-anticipated Maltese summer, many have shared photos and video footage of jellyfish invasions at various Maltese beaches as temperatures continue to soar.

Marine biologist Alan Deidun told MaltaToday that the reason behind this is the fact that sea temperatures went down to 14.6°C during the first two weeks of March, extending the jellyfish’s development cycle due to cold temperatures.

The mauve stinger jellyfish, which has become commonplace in Maltese waters, has been developing at different rates, with people spotting the stingers as early as January as they continue to bloom in the summer months.

Deidun also reported that the ‘big bloom’ of jellyfish is expected to subside in the next few weeks.

Have you seen any jellyfish this summer?
