"Hi! This is Pat Weber with the San Diego Surfing Academy for expertvillage.com. As far as creatures are concerned, in Southern California sharks aren't a big issue, but they are in other places. Always heed the local warnings. Sting rays are more prevalent in San Diego County, Southern California: anywhere you got a sandy bottom, you want to shuffle your feet. Sting rays aren't predators; they're not out to get you. You shuffle your feet; they are timid and they will swim away. But if you are unfortunate to step on one and get a sting, hot water, as hot as you can stand it without scalding your foot, is the way to treat it. Jellyfish come out when water gets warmer. They come in on currents. If you get a jellyfish sting, use white vinegar, or some form of ammonia will neutralize the sting. "
