August when it is really hot is the worst time.
You know very quickly that you have been stung, hurts like hell and turns red and sore. The poison is alkaline so you need to get acid on it very quickly, do not put water on it as it makes it worse. Most common source of acid on the beach is vinegar from a bar or restaurant and even easier is urine, and no I am not joking. Been there and done that as they say! :yikes
