TL;DR
Stinging jellyfish can occur at Canggu beaches; their stings are described as painful but usually manageable. The discussion did not confirm routine warning signs or frequent box jellyfish specifically in Bali.
When swimming in Canggu, allow for the possibility of ordinary stinging jellyfish. Stings were described as very unpleasant but tolerable, with no severe outcome mentioned.
Box jellyfish were considered more concerning around island archipelagos near Bali, but the messages did not confirm that they are regularly present at Canggu’s surf beaches.
Before entering the water at Canggu, check conditions with lifeguards or beach staff: the discussion did not confirm that jellyfish warnings are posted consistently.
