A marker buoy comprises a buoyant marker body, at least one lighting member, energy means for providing current for the at least one lighting member, water detecting means for detecting the buoyant marker body being in contact with water, and light detecting means for detecting the amount of light in the environment of the marker buoy. The lighting member, energy means, water detecting means and light detecting means are connected to one another in such a manner that the lighting member is arranged to be switched on only when the buoyant marker body is in contact with water and when the amount of light in the environment of the marker buoy is below a predetermined limit.
