What color are can buoys typically?

Can buoys are typically colored green. These buoys serve as navigational aids, indicating the port side of a channel when approaching from the open sea. The standardized color-coding system used in buoy navigation helps boaters quickly understand which side of the channel they should keep to for safe passage. By following the color coding—where red marks the right side and green marks the left—boaters can more easily navigate through channels and avoid hazards. This system of color coding is essential for maintaining safe waterways, particularly in areas with heavy traffic or complex navigation.
