Distances

Here's an aerial pict of the Seagate, Coney Island, Brighton Beach area. For an interactive map check out Google Maps. You can also see a single 3mi swim loop (Grimaldo's Chair to the White Building, then to the Coney Island Pier, then back to Grimaldo's Chair) with this Gmap Pedometer Course.

Here are some swim distances, parallel to the shoreline approximately 100yds out, past the jetties - care of Tom McGann.
