We're all here to have fun, so let's be safe.

If you see a bluebottle jellyfish on the beach, stay away! They can cause severe pain. Don't go near them with your bare feet, and don't touch them.

If you find yourself with a bluebottle jellyfish sting, immediately wash the area with sea water to help remove any remaining tentacles or stinging cells. Seek medical attention if symptoms persist.

We're so excited to announce that Category 5 Emergency Care are partnering with Case Ocean School to provide water safety for all of their students and staff.

This program is a brilliant new way to teach children about marine biology and reef conservation. They'll learn about the creatures that live in coral reefs, as well as how to stay safe around them. We hope this program will help encourage children to care about the ocean and its creatures within.

We're proud to be a part of this incredible initiative!
