Maltese Diver gets Up Close & Personal with Fried Egg Jellyfish in Magical Video

With Autumn on the horizon as Malta’s summer chapter begins to close, local ocean-lovers will probably want to catch the last glimpse of the our waters, and local diver Max Saliba found himself in quite the magical setting.

Taking to Instagram to upload a gorgeous reel, Saliba shows himself swimming amongst a bloom of Phacellophora camtschatica, otherwise known as the fried egg jellyfish or ‘Qassata’ / ‘Tal-Lampuka’ in Maltese.

Saliba showed footage of himself and a few others swimming amongst the harmless species of jellyfish in the crystal clear waters of Dwejra.
