A public event was organised on Sunday by An Garda Síochána to remember the first-ever members of the Cork West Garda Division.
Attending the ceremony on the water were Courtmacsherry and Kinsale RNLI lifeboats and the local civil defence RIB.
The centenary event began at the main pier in Kinsale at 1 pm, where gardaí berthed a Kinsale Yacht Club launch to replicate how the members first came ashore in the town 100 years ago.
Serving and retired Gardaí participated in the march, along with other representatives of the Emergency Services and Defence Forces.
