Distances Between Beaches

Gui asked an interesting question about the distances between north shore beaches. It would be an interesting endeavor to swim all these segments. These are all approximate distances and depend on where exactly you get in and out, and what line you swim (follow the shore or straight across bays), etc. I've starred the ones I've actually done.

Starting from McKinley and going north:
0.5 miles to the south end of Bradford Beach *
0.4 to the north end of Bradford *
2.0 to Atwater
1.6 to Big Bay
1.2 to Klode *
1.9 to the south end of Beach Drive (the witch's house) *
1.4 to Doctors Park
You could keep going obviously, but that's already over 9 miles.

For today's conditions and tomorrow's swim see the preceding post
