Stationary bright light hovering in the same location for unknown duration. Witnessed over an hour of it before we left.

Was driving and this stationary bright light was just there for so long. Parked at a beach that seemed closer and it was still there. Almost looked like it was over the water, but you could see the other side of the water where another town was & we don't know. It was confusing. Didn't move at all, if any movement it looked as though it was almost lightly lightly hovering in a counterclockwise circle ⃔up then back down and up but micro movement to the naked eye if any. Tried to take a video it was so hard to get it to focus. Almost looked like the light was diffracting from a triangle like shaped object. We are still mad confused, it didn't leave and eventually we left and went home. It wasn't Sirius or Venus, or any plane we saw planes flying around and the object was a much larger light in comparison but also looked much lower than where the planes were. I don't think the object was actually that big, but that it was lower and therefore looked bigger than the plane lights. Could have been nothing but it felt like it was something, I was so confused why no one else was sussed out. It was a beautiful night as well and you could see all the stars, but there was a bit of haze where the object was so not all the constellations could be seen to the naked eye but planes and the object itself were clearly visible.
Our coordinates (approximately, doing this the next day so its as close as I can figure out)
