Large glowing yellow round star shape floating and moving above the beach and shore.

Last month I stayed on the same stretch of beach at an ocean front beach house. I was sitting on the deck and saw this weird ‘star?’ but I noticed it moving closer to me and then back toward the pier. It would hover in certain places. I could not tell how big it was but all of a sudden the yellow star took off super fast toward the south and disappeared in seconds. So now, one month later I am on the deck at a different oceanfront beach house on the same stretch of beach at about 8:30pm and I see the light coming up the beach toward me, heading North. I recognized it immediately. It stopped about half way between me and the pier, hovering. Then all of a sudden it like heated up and cast a dimmed light onto the ocean near the shore and then took off super fast heading upwards. I followed the red dot as far as the eye could see and it took a right turn and disappeared. The light cast on the ocean told me that it was pretty big. Anyway, I am freaking out and am like damn, I did not have my camera. So I hung out again hoping it would come back so I could get video. It did not, but I was freaking out that if it did it might see me trying to capture it from the light the camera emits. I can’t believe I missed that opportunity. I have seen ufo's before in NM and a triad in St. Louis, Mo many years ago but this might be the closest I have come to an alien abduction (nervous laugh.)
