Just days ago we told you about a large stingray who frolicked next to a surprised surfer off the coast of Wildwood.

Then, a woman named Cynthia Herb came across this blubbery and transparent, but gorgeous, jellyfish.

The perfectly-Jersey Shore image was posted to Facebook and Instagram by Wildwood Boardwalk, with some speculating in the comments that the creature may be a Man-of-War jellyfish. Others say, "no," it's jussstttt a jellyfish.
