Marker bouys are being installed at Kilkee Pier to inform those using high-powered craft of speed limits there.
The recently approved Clare Beach Bye-Laws specify that operators of personal watercraft and fast power craft must observe a speed restriction of 6 knots from the water line to 300m seaward from all beaches.
They should also not operate in the proximity of swimmers, except in the event of an emergency and any vessel not observing the speed limit is liable to prosecution.
The buoys are being installed on behalf of Clare County Council by The Irish Coastguard and Kilkee Sub Aqua Club.
