What is this? Jellyfish? If so, what species? Found in North Wales. (lemmy.world)

It's definitely a compass jellyfish, loads of them around the west of Ireland coast. Saw one swim past me when I was at the beach last week. It was worrying but apparently their sting is quite mild. Not sure on what scale tho!
