    We have experienced on several occasions this year how oceans and rivers have turned red.

    We have seen this phenomenon in China, Russia and France and now oceans in Australia are also changing color.

    Several popular beaches around Sydney resemble scenes taken straight out of an apocalyptic movie. The famous Bondi Beach, Maroubra Beach, Clovelly Beach and Gordon's Bay are now filled with patches of red algae.

    Authorities are currently examining the water and some of the beaches are closed for the moment.

    According to lifeguard Bruce Hopkins the smell in the area is "fishy".

    This is a natural phenomenon that can be exacerbated by certain weather conditions. According to a Randwick council spokesman red algae can potentially be dangerous to humans exposed to it.
