Wind towards the bow. Otherwise the wind can push you into the buoy.

Again this is a VERY broad question, with no mention to the size of the vessel, conditions or the location of the buoy, I am going to say speed of the vessel is a factor. The length of your vessel, in relation to the swing. The scope of the line required to moor. The type of connection you will be using and the duration are factors to take into account when approaching a mooring buoy.
