Bright light moving erratically over the ocean

My wife and I are staying in an oceanfront condo in the north end of Myrtle Beach. Around 8:00 pm on Nov. 26th, we observed a bright light in the sky over the ocean. I thought it was a star or planet but what caught my attention was that it was unusually bright. It was midway between the horizon and Orion.

When I asked my wife to look at it we began to notice that it was moving. The movement was pretty erratic. Side to side and up and down. Never moving very far in any direction and not moving particularly fast. For long periods it remains stationary.

At times it appeared to have a greenish color. We watched it for at least 15 minutes.

We have also observed the orange lights that others have reported.
