What colour are port-hand buoys?

  1. Red

  2. Green

  3. Yellow

  4. Blue

The correct answer is: Green

Port-hand buoys are used to mark the left side of a channel when entering a port or travelling upstream on a river. The colour of the port-hand buoy is typically green to indicate the safe direction to travel, in contrast to the red colour used for starboard-hand buoys. While the other options may be used for different types of navigation markers, they are not used to identify port-hand buoys.
