    Does anybody know the distance between buoys in Killiney beach?

    My Garmin said distance from beach to first buoy was circa 250m but that can't be right..i would have thought maybe 100m.

    Any info appreciated, there were a good few pulse members out last night! Water still not that warm..

    I don't swim in seapoint so I've no idea how accurate these distances are but I've seen this once or twice now,

    If you scroll down you will see a photo with distances drawn over it.

    Just realised you said Killiney and not Seapoint. Sorry, that map is not much use really so!

    All 3 buoys is roughly 1500m. ~500m out and back to first buoy is about right.

    That's interesting I didn't think the first buoy was that far. Thought the Garmin usually clocks it around 240m alright. Thanks for that.
