A spar buoy is a type of buoy that is anchored to the seafloor and floats upright in the water. It is designed to withstand harsh marine conditions and is commonly used in oceanographic research, navigation, and for marking marine hazards. The structure typically consists of a long, slender cylindrical or conical body (the "spar") that is tethered to the seabed with a heavy anchor or chain.
