Jellyfish lake

One thing that any visitor has to experience is Jellyfish lake. The name says it all, it is a lake full of jellyfish. As there are hardly any other species that can live in this lake the jellyfish does not have any enemies and therefore they thrive. There are two different species of jellyfish in the lake and as none of them sting it is not a problem for humans to swim there.

To protect the jellyfish it is not possible to scuba dive in the lake but you are allowed to go snorkeling. At first it feels a bit spooky with all of the jellyfish and you really try to avoid touching them. After a while you realize that there are just too many not to touch them.

For more information about this lake please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jellyfish_Lake.
