Description
Journaling:
These were everywhere! On the beach and in the water. Using Google Lens, Jose snapped a photo to find out what they are. We soon learned they are harmless and not going to sting us, hooray!

Porpita porpita, or blue button, is a marine organism consisting of a colony of hydroids found in tropical and sub-tropical waters of the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian oceans. Although it is superficially similar to a jellyfish, each apparent individual is actually a colony of hydrozoan polyps.
