Boquer Vally Snorkelling And Swimming
I love the walk along the Boquer valley and I love a cool down swim when I get the bay at the end. The Snorkelling is fantastic here, but it is often full of jellyfish.
Jellyfish do not bother me too much, I swim around them. They do however pack a sting when you hit them. I have sat in this bay many times and watched swimmers pop in the water for a quick swim only to run out with stings. So it is perhaps wise to ask someone if there are a many in the water. If you can get in, the underwater topography is beautiful and there is a lot of sea life around, the water is usually crystal clear.
The jellyfish in the pictures that I took on one visit are of the Pink Jelly fish, official advise is not to swim with them, because of potential reactions to the stings. On one visit 8 years ago, it was carpeted with the things and no one went in the water that day. As I understand it storms to the north of the Majorca occasionally drive blooms into the northern bays.
A final thought, if you are unsure and not that confident in the water or with jelly fish do not get in here, it is very remote and help is not easy to come by, there is also no telephone reception until you get out of the valley.
