Over 120 people were stung by Portuguese man o' war jellyfish in San Sebastián's beaches in a single day, leading to temporary beach closures. The venomous creatures, often mistaken for jellyfish, caused minor stings but can pose a risk due to their painful venom. Experts attribute the influx to warm water temperatures and wind conditions. While not typically found in northern Spain, these jellyfish have been appearing more frequently due to climate change and reduced natural predators.
