This is a true statement David K, indeed.

Just a bit off the topic.......water shoes were mentioned earlier........water shoes are not sandels as I have seen folks in the water with these. Sandels offer zero protection against the jellys....




Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

I always have a pair of water shoes aboard my boat or when taking a stroll down a shelly beach.

Jellyfish are there, too. Very common danger snorkeling around Bay of Conception. You can see them quite clearly through your facemask. Little guys hanging in the water, usually from the surface, and are easily detected ...AFTER YOUR LIPS AND CHEEKS START BURNING!!

Here's some useful information on sting rays, jellyfish, and man-o-wars encountered in Baja waters.

Years ago we met a guy at Campo Rene that wore ski boots with holes drilled in them. Talk about clod hopper heavy.
