Mysterious blob-like sea creatures washed up across the Southern California coastline. 

Beachgoers were shocked to find the blue, gooey creatures on the sand at beaches between Ventura and San Diego on Monday. 

A bunch of blobs were spotted at Newport Beach and Long Beach as scientists said that strong ocean currents and winds brought them to shore. 

Many users took to social media to share snaps of the unique finds and were in awe of how the creatures got there. 

‘They’re amazing animals. They’re like space aliens or something that have invaded our beaches, but they’re not going to be here for very long,’ Bruno Pernet, a professor of biological sciences at California State University Long Beach told KTLA5.
