'Twice as big as my feet': Large jellyfish washes up on Auckland beach

Mildred Armah Reporter from North Shore Times

One of Aotearoa’s largest jellyfish species has washed up on an Auckland beach on Monday, leaving locals stunned at its “foot-sized” tentacles.

Takapuna local Ingrid,​ who did not want her last name used for privacy concerns, was out on a stroll along Takapuna beach when she came across the creature.

She said she instantly noticed its “massive” size, and fearing what it was, hastily got out of the water.
