What causes the sea water to be blue (like in the Bahamas) rather than greenish like in other oceans?
Can you tell me why the sea water in the Bahamas is blue instead of greenish like in other oceans?
Certainly! Sunlight interacts with the ocean's surface, and the water absorbs colors in the light spectrum differently. Blue light is absorbed the least, which makes it scatter and reflect back to our eyes. This is what gives the sea its blue color.
