When we perceive the color of an object, we see the color that is reflected from the object into human eyes. Water absorbs light that is red, so that's why bodies of water aren't red. These bodies of water, however, don't absorb much blue light, so blue light get reflected into our eyes the most. That's why we see bodies of water as blue. Tap water is clear because it is only a small amount of water. A glass of water does not have the necessary amount of water to reflect enough blue light to be noticed by our eyes.

So, on a map, if you drew water as clear, nobody would be able to tell there was anything there at all! So, water on a map is drawn blue instead.
