The sky is blue because the atmosphere scatters sunlight. Light with shorter wavelengths (blue, purple, violet) is scattered more in the atmosphere, so the sky appears blue; this is the same reason that sunsets and sunrises appear red and orange: at sunset/sunrise, the sun's light hits the atmosphere at a low angle, increasing the distance that the light must travel through the atmosphere. Thus, more colors are 'scattered out', even the blue-end of the spectrum, leaving red and orange colors.

Why the sky changes color at sunset?
As you may know, when you mix the colors yellow and green, you get the color blue. The yellow from the sun reflects off of the green ground, making the sky look blue. At night, when there is no sun, you see that the sky isn't blue anymore. This is actually what the sky looks like all the time. The blue color is just an optical illusion. It is quite amazing though.

Why is the sky and water blue?
The sky is blue because of Rayleigh scattering -- blue photons scatter off air molecules to a large extent, while the other colors travel directly in straight lines from the sun, making the sky appear blue and the sun appear yellow (white minus blue). In space, or on the airless moon, the sky is black and sun is white. It is NOT true that oceans look blue due to sky reflection. Water also scatters blue light, so the explanation of its color is largely the same as that for the sky.
