What color are Swimming Buoys?

  1. Yellow

  2. White

  3. Red

  4. Orange

The correct answer is: White

Swimming buoys are typically white in color because it is the most visible color against the blue or green backdrop of the ocean or lake. Yellow and orange buoys are often used for caution or warning purposes and are not typically found in open water swimming areas. While red is a commonly used color for buoys in aquatic sports, it is often reserved for marking the boundaries of the course, rather than being used for the buoys themselves. Therefore, white is the most suitable color for swimming buoys.
