Their arrival on Hawaii&#39;s beaches is quite predictable. They usually arrive around 9-12 days after a full moon (but occasionally they have been observed on off-cycle days as well).<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-beach-has-the-most-box-jellyfish\"><\/span>What Beach has the most box jellyfish?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Since the 1980s, both the numbers and frequency of this species of box jellyfish have significantly increased, especially around Waikiki Beach, a famous surfing hotspot south of Honolulu. According to the report, researchers link the population growth of these jellyfish to a series of shipwrecks off Waikiki Beach.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-can-sting-you-in-maui\"><\/span>What can sting you in Maui?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Box jellyfish<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-time-of-year-are-jellyfish-most-active-in-hawaii\"><\/span>What time of year are jellyfish most active in Hawaii?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>In Hawaii, about 8-10 days after a full moon, there is a higher probability of box jellyfish sightings on all leeward sides of Hawaii islands for three consecutive days. Now Hawaiian beaches and underwater adventures are great fun, but no one wants to be stung by a jellyfish.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-do-you-prevent-box-jellyfish-in-hawaii\"><\/span>How do you prevent box jellyfish in Hawaii?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>How to avoid them: Scan shallow waters before getting into the water\u2014especially a week after the full moon and during windy weather, as gusts can bring jellyfish closer to the shore\u2014and heed warning signs. You can also check out the University of Hawaii\/Waikiki Aquarium&#39;s Box Jellyfish Calendar.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-many-people-get-stung-by-box-jellyfish-in-hawaii\"><\/span>How many people get stung by box jellyfish in Hawaii?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>According to ocean safety officials, at least 80 people were stung, and more than 100 were counted, forcing them to close the popular visitor destination for the day.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"are-there-jellyfish-in-maui-hawaii\"><\/span>Are there jellyfish in Maui Hawaii?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Maui beaches and Big Island beaches are also affected but typically have fewer problems.

Only pick up the very top, where the jellyfish has a small patch of ballooning skin.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"can-a-jellyfish-sting-through-clothing\"><\/span>Can a jellyfish sting through clothing?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Reason: The stingers are short and cannot puncture clothing.

However, one UAMS specialist says there is no evidence that this method works. \u201cDespite what anyone tells you, do not apply vinegar, urine or meat tenderizer to the affected area,\u201d UAMS neurosurgeon Dr<br \/>.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"does-benadryl-help-jellyfish-stings\"><\/span>Does Benadryl help jellyfish stings?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Treat pain with an over-the-counter pain reliever. If pain is severe, see a doctor for more effective relief. Treat itching with an over-the-counter anti-itch cream and\/or an antihistamine, such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl\u00ae).<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"why-does-vinegar-help-jellyfish-stings\"><\/span>Why does vinegar help jellyfish stings?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Vinegar inactivates the jelly&#39;s nematocysts so they can&#39;t fire, which means when you go to remove the tentacles you won&#39;t end up with more venom than before. Of course, once you treat with vinegar you still have to remove the stingers with tweezers.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-sting-do-you-pee-on\"><\/span>What sting do you pee on?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Despite what you may have heard, it&#39;s a myth that peeing on a jellyfish sting does anything to ease the pain.
