Hidden Danger! Box jelly fish, sea wasp
Thong Nai Pan Yai Beach的点评
点评:The beach and the surrounding hotels are quite nice.
The bigger problem is that visibility in the water is very poor … 40 cm … lots of particles. That’s actually true of most beaches on the east side of Koh Phangan.
When visibility is poor, you can’t see a thing while swimming in the ocean. Most importantly, you can’t see any jellyfish.
And damn right, this isn’t just some pesky jellyfish—no, it’s a real killer. Box jellyfish, sea wasps, etc.
This thing stung me and … sent me straight to the hospital … to the ICU … many people die … the venom can easily kill you if you’re exposed to enough of it … I was lucky.
This is to remind you that while the beach may look inviting for swimming, it’s often not suitable for snorkeling and can be extremely dangerous.
The hotel reacted quickly and helped me get to the hospital; they did everything they could. I’m very grateful for everything they did.
翻译:海滩以及周边的酒店都相当不错。
更大的问题是水中的能见度极差……只有40厘米左右……水里有大量悬浮颗粒。实际上,帕岸岛东侧的多数海滩都是如此。
能见度差的时候,在海里游泳根本什么都看不见。最重要的是,连水母也看不到。
没错,这些可不是普通的烦人水母——它们可是真正的致命杀手:箱形水母、海黄蜂等等。这个东西蜇了我,结果……直接把我送进了医院……送进了重症监护室……很多人都会因此丧命……只要接触到足够量的毒液,就足以致人死亡……我很幸运。
这算是提醒大家:虽然海滩看起来很适合游泳,但实际上往往并不适合浮潜,甚至可能极其危险。
酒店方面反应迅速,帮我送医;他们尽了一切努力。对于他们的帮助,我心怀感激。
