The ocean appears blue primarily due to the absorption and scattering of sunlight. Water absorbs colors in the red part of the light spectrum more effectively than those in the blue part, allowing blue light to be scattered and reflected back to our eyes. Additionally, factors such as the presence of particles, algae, and depth can influence the color, but the predominant reason for the blue appearance is the inherent properties of water itself.
