Diving with jellyfish is an exciting experience but always use caution and keep a reasonable distance. Like most marine animals, the colder the water, the larger the species get, and jellyfish are no exception. Avid divers plan dive trips to the more frigid waters of the Arctic to swim with the world’s most giant jellyfish, the Lion’s mane. If you like to live on the adventurous side, you can join the many divers who travel to Australia to dive with one of the most beautiful jellyfish in the world, but also the most toxic, the box jelly, also known as the sea wasp. No matter where you dive in the world, you are sure to see at least one jellyfish along the way. Click here to learn more about specific types of jellyfish and where you can see them.
