The red buoy, which is usually on the right side when entering a harbor or river from the sea, indicates the starboard side, while the green buoy, on the left, indicates the port side. Together, they help guide vessels safely through navigable waters, ensuring they stay within designated channels. This system is part of the IALA buoyage system used in many countries.
