Jellyfish, stingrays, and sea urchins are among the most common and harmful types of stinging marine life paddlers must watch out for. There are reef species, including fire coral and anemone, which may look stunning, but pack a powerful sting. Sea lice and stinging hydroids are small but potentially painful creatures to watch for. Certain fish, including scorpionfish like lionfish and weever fish, pack a potent sting.
