One of my hives is a very nasty one.
The bees attack anyone that walks in the garden.
We are in the middle of the honey flow. What to do?

      You might want to try a curtain of some material around the hive to
make the bees fly up over the curtain and away to forage.   They should
return at the same altitude and drop down to the entrance.
       The curtain only has to be solid enough to deter bees from flying
through it.  You want to create an artificial hedge of cloth,  netting, or
branches to lift the flight path above people's heads.
