PURPLE FLAG β Jellyfish in the water
Jellyfish have been reported at The Baths. A purple flag flies alongside the red, yellow or green flag β it does not describe sea conditions, it means marine pests are in the water.
Rinse stings with vinegar or salt water, not fresh water, and seek medical help if the reaction is severe.
Take Care on ALL Beaches due to JELLYFISH - Sea Wasp (Carybdea alata) - including The Bubbly Pool JVD and Anegada.

BVI Marine Forecast Synopsis
Light to moderate east to northeast winds and generally tranquil seas will prevail tonight. Showers will become more frequent after midnight, particularly across the local waters. A lingering upper level low will continue to support showers and isolated thunderstorm through midweek, with lightning remaining a concern mainly during the afternoon hours. Marines should remain alert for locally gusty winds and reduced visibility near this activity. A northeasterly swell will persist across the Atlantic waters, where seas will gradually subside through late week before increasing again over the weekend.
Seas are provided as a range of the average height of the highest 1/3 of the waves, along with the occasional height of the average highest 10 percent of the waves.
