Published by Pacific Islands Ocean Observing System (PacIOOS) | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: April 21, 2026 at 08:58 AM | Dataset Last Updated: January 25, 2016 at 12:00 AM
Displays the locations of lights for the State of Hawaii as recorded on NOAA nautical charts. These aids to navigation (ATONs) are used in conjunction with beacons and buoys to indicate traffic channels, to warn against potential dangers, or for other navigational purposes. In the IALA B maritime buoyage system (North and South America), red lateral markers have even numbers and should remain on your right when returning from sea ("red, right, returning") while green lateral markers have odd numbers and should remain on your left. Other colors are used for non-lateral markers with a variety of purposes.
