Open Water Swimming Safety Buoys

A safety buoy makes you visible to boats, paddlers, and race marshals while you swim. Tow behind you without affecting your stroke. Most models double as a dry bag for keys, a phone, or nutrition -- useful for training swims and triathlon transitions alike.

This collection covers safety buoys and tow floats from BuddySwim, ZONE3, and Rascal Racing, ranging from simple lightweight floats to buoys with hydration stations and 28-litre dry bag storage.
