A ‘no swimming’ order is in place at Tramore Beach due to Portuguese Man-Of-War jellyfish.

Waterford Council says it’s had reports of several dead jellyfish on the beach and it’s making arrangements to remove them.

It’s advising walkers not to approach the Portuguese Man-Of-War as they can give a nasty sting, even when dead.
