This may have existed for a while, but I just noticed it, due to a new feature
which appeared on one of the buoys I hit to see what the swell/wind/etc. is like
off the S coast of Vancouver Island (La Perouse: 
http://www.nws.fsu.edu/B/buoy?station=46206).

The following URL is for a clickable map showing NWS buoy locations, which
ultimately leads to an index allowing searching for buoy stations within (any
specified) radius of the target buoy:  http://www.nws.fsu.edu/buoy/

Put up by the NWS, out of Tallahassee, FL, but also includes Canadian buoys. 
Updated, for the data-deprived, every 6 minutes or so.
