Loch Ryan, North Cardinal Buoy off Milleur Point
A cardinal mark indicates the direction of safe water as a cardinal (compass) direction (north, east, south or west) relative to the mark. This makes them meaningful regardless of the position or direction of travel of the approaching vessel, in contrast to the red and green (port and starboard) lateral mark system.

The direction of safe water is indicated by its two conical top-marks; in this case, both cones are pointing upwards which indicates that vessels should pass to the north of the buoy.


The position of the buoy has been estimated from the chart at visitmyharbour LinkExternal link .
