```dart
CircleLayer(
  circles: [
    CircleMarker(
      point: LatLng(51.50739215592943, -0.127709825533512),
      radius: 10000,
      useRadiusInMeter: true,
    ),
  ],
),
```

{% hint style="warning" %}
Excessive use of circles may create performance issues.
{% endhint %}

## Interactivity

`CircleLayer`s and `CircleMarker`s support hit detection and interactivity.
