So when you play on the shore digging holes or making sand castles monitors especially the smaller and attempts that are not within a cavity that is at the height of his head.2. Sand contaminated
E coli bacteria is a major that usually affects our small intestine causing vomiting and diarrhea.
This bacterium lives in the sand and even grows and reproduces in this medium. This bacteria is the result of decales materials of many animals (dogs, cats, birds …), so it is likely that if the presence of this microbe is detected also has other more dangerous as salmonella.

3. The stingray
This is the main rival of sharks in terms of deadly attacks. They are very docile animals but being buried under the sand are often stepped on by swimmers and cause these try to defend themselves and thus their attack occurs.
These animals have a poisonous sting in the tail end. This venom is not fatal, I unless the victim is allergic to the toxin.
To prevent this attack is recommended shuffling through the sand taking long steps, so we alerted them and so will take time to disappear.

4. Jellyfish
Most jellyfish are harmless but others have poison in their tentacles. Depending on the species the poison is more or less dangerous.
Vinegar is often neutralize toxin medusay relieves symptoms in cases of bites with irritative toxin. See if the victim shows paralysis of a body part or extreme emergency seek immediate reaction.

5. Phytoplankton
The eternal rival SpongeBob is very abundant in many coastal areas. Most do not cause any problems but some produce toxins that affect bathers causing burns or itching. Luckily this discomfort does not usually go higher and emomentos disappears after leaving the water.

6. Sharks
Contrary to what many people think, these animals are not the main cause of death. Sometimes and especially in some coastal areas approaching the shore, causing a stir in bathers they interpret as an attack and that’s when their violent reactions occur.
Keep Calm and salt water without attracting much attention if you see a shark approaching.

There are a number of steps recommended follow if you feel like you’re caught in the undertow:
– Do not fight the current.
– Stay away gradually in the course of the current (swimming parallel to the shore) and when you feel safe, nothing to shallower water.
