Jellyfish wash ashore Tarague Beach
ANDERSEN AIR FORCE BASE, Guam -- Man of War jellyfish have been washing up on Tarague beach since Feb. 22 due to the high winds, causing the beach to close down. The jellyfish use the float portion of their bodies which can sometimes be seen above water, as a sail to make it inland to the beach. Only jellyfish small in size have washed up on the beach due to the coral reef. The reef prevents larger jellyfish from making it inland. (Courtesy Photo)
