Buala Light (8°08'S., 157°37'E.) is shown from the SE end of Vaghena Islet in the SE entrance to Maringe Lagoon. The SE entrance leads between Sogna Reef and the main island along the SW side of Sogna Reef, which dries in patches. The passage narrows and turns between Buala Light and Juakau Islet, and leads into the lagoon, however, local knowledge is necessary.
