Hundreds of dead jelly fish wash up on a Krabi Beach

Many dead jelly fish have been washed up on a beach in Krabi.

Hundreds of the jelly fish washed up on a kilometre-long stretch of Laempong Beach in Krabi today.

Most of them were dead jelly fish, about 15-20 centimetres in diameter. They were not poisonous jelly fish.

Locals say these jelly fish washed up over the past week. They speculated it may have been from the heated sea water before the start of the rainy season.

Every year the locals say the jelly fish wash up just before the monsoon season but this year they are early.
